摘要

摘要目的人格的黑暗四元组（即虐待狂、精神病、自恋和马基雅维利主义的亚临床特征）在预测冒险行为方面的解释力尚待确定。这项研究旨在从四个黑暗特质变量中预测自我报告和行为冒险。方法参与者（N=216）使用简短的黑暗三元测验、悲伤人格评估、领域特定风险承担量表和自动气球模拟风险任务完成在线调查。有人假设精神变态会积极预测冒险行为，虐待狂会独特地积极预测冒险。结果这两种假设都得到了部分支持，因为精神病和虐待狂正独特地预测了自我报告的冒险行为，但这对Bonferroni矫正后的精神病来说并不重要。此外，精神变态和虐待狂并不是行为冒险的重要预测因素。结论检测激励个体参与冒险行为的因素在临床干预中可能有价值。

The Dark Tetrad in the prediction of self-reported and behavioural risk-taking

ABSTRACT Objective The explanatory power of the Dark Tetrad of personality (i.e., sub-clinical traits of sadism, psychopathy, narcissism and Machiavellianism) in the prediction of risk-taking behaviours is yet to be determined. This study aimed to predict both self-reported and behavioural risk-taking from the four dark trait variables. Method Participants (N = 216) completed an online survey using the Short Dark Triad, the Assessment of Sadistic Personality, the Domain-Specific Risk-Taking Scale and the automatic Balloon Analogue Risk Task. It was hypothesised that psychopathy would positively predict risk-taking, and sadism would uniquely positively predict risk-taking. Results Both hypotheses were partially supported as psychopathy and sadism positively uniquely predicted self-reported risk-taking, but this was not significant for psychopathy after a Bonferroni correction. Furthermore, psychopathy and sadism were not significant predictors of behavioural risk-taking. Conclusions Detection of factors that motivate individuals to engage in risk-taking behaviours could be valuable in clinical interventions.
