The Dark Triad of Personality - Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and Psychopathy in Everyday Life
The Dark Triad of Personality: Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and Psychopathy in Everyday Life summarizes the latest research on how these personality traits (psychopathology, narcissism, Machiavellianism) are defined and displayed, while also exploring the impact they have on individuals and society, the relationship between clinical conditions and personality traits, and their adaptivity. The book introduces the Dark Triad through the lens of existing clinical and personality literature, discussing shared and unique cognitive and empathetic profiles associated with each trait. Antisocial, antagonistic, and criminal behaviors associated with the Dark Triad are also covered, as is the way these individuals compete socially and in the workplace.
- Reviews the development, measurement and evolutionary origins of these traits
- Explores how these traits may be adaptive
- Assesses the relationship between clinical conditions and Dark Triad personality traits
- Includes sections on manipulation, competition and cooperation
