Abstract |
Psychopathy refers to a range of complex behaviors and personality traits, including callousness and antisocial behavior,
typically studied in criminal populations. Recent studies have used self-reports to examine psychopathic traits among
noncriminal samples. The goal of the current study was to examine the underlying factor structure of the Self-Report
of Psychopathy Scale–Short Form (SRP-SF) across complementary samples and examine the impact of gender on factor
structure. We examined the structure of the SRP-SF among 2,554 young adults from three undergraduate samples and a
high-risk young adult sample. Using confirmatory factor analysis, a four-correlated factor model and a four-bifactor model
showed good fit to the data. Evidence of weak invariance was found for both models across gender. These findings highlight
that the SRP-SF is a useful measure of low-level psychopathic traits in noncriminal samples, although the underlying factor
structure may not fully translate across men and women.
