The relationship between psychopathic traits and executive functioning among incarcerated men
Individuals with high levels of psychopathic traits are often characterized by behaviors suggesting attenuated executive functioning (EF); however, the literature examining these two constructs have provided varied results. The current study sought to clarify the relationship between EF and psychopathic traits in a large sample of incarcerated men ( n = 811). We utilized the Hare Psychopathy Checklist - Revised (PCL-R) and the Delis-Kaplan Execut…
The Utility of Expert-Rated and Self-Report Assessments of Youth Psychopathic Traits for Predicting Felony Recidivism Among Formerly Incarcerated Youth
Psychopathic traits assessed with expert-rated instruments are well-established predictors for both general and violent felony recidivism outcomes in adjudicated youth. However, it is not clear whether self-report assessments of psychopathic traits show similar predictive value. The current study evaluated both expert-rated (i.e., the Hare Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version [PCL:YV]) and self-report measures (i.e., the Childhood Psychopathy Sca…
Psychopathic Traits Are Associated with Lifetime History of Nicotine Dependence among Incarcerated Offenders
Background: Individuals scoring high on psychopathy engage in problematic patterns of alcohol and illicit substance use. However, our understanding regarding the association between psychopathy and nicotine use remains limited, which is surprising, given the detrimental consequences associated with such use. Previous studies have observed significant correlations between psychopathic traits (particularly Factor 2 scores assessing lifestyle/behavi…
Childhood Trauma Predicts Sadistic Traits and Violent Behavior in Incarcerated Youth
Psychopathy and Risky Sexual Behavior in Incarcerated Women
To date, very few studies have explored the association between psychopathic traits and risky sexual behavior (RSB) among women. Here, we investigated this relationship in a sample of 137 incarcerated women. Psychopathic traits were assessed via the Hare Psychopathy Checklist–Revised (PCL-R) and lifetime RSB measures, including number of lifetime sexual partners, frequency of engaging in sexual intercourse while intoxicated, and frequency of forg…
ANKK1 and TH gene variants in combination with paternal maltreatment increase susceptibility to both cognitive and attentive impulsivity
Recent scientific findings suggest that dopamine exerts a central role on impulsivity, as well as that aversive life experiences may promote the high levels of impulsivity that often underlie violent behavior. To deepen our understanding of the complex gene by environment interplay on impulsive behavior, we genotyped six dopaminergic allelic variants ( ANKK1 -rs1800497, TH -rs6356, DRD4 -rs1800955, DRD4 -exonIII-VNTR, SLC6A3 -VNTR and COMT -rs468…
Psychopathy, Borderline Personality Disorder, and Substance Use in Incarcerated Females
Psychopathy and borderline personality disorder (BPD) are commonly associated with an increased propensity toward substance use. However, few studies have accounted for shared variance between psychopathy and BPD when examining relationships with unique forms of substance use, particularly in justice-involved females. This study investigated psychopathic and BPD traits in relation to alcohol and drug use in a sample of 274 incarcerated adult fema…
Neural Correlates of Moral Judgment in Criminal Offenders with Sadistic Traits
Quantifying the psychopathic stare
Anomalous moral intuitions in juvenile offenders with psychopathic traits
Development of an expert-rater assessment of trauma history in a high-risk youth forensic sample
These results suggest that the integration of both self-report and file material can be meaningfully used to assess traumatic symptomology. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved)
