Unfortunately, very little research has examined the link between antisocial personality traits in childhood and adult psychopathy. This study used data from a clinic-referred sample of 177 boys, assessed annually from recruitment (ages 7 to 12) through age 19. Parent and teacher ratings of interpersonal callousness (IC) were tested at predictors of psychopathy ratings at 18 and 19. In regression models, conduct disorder (CD) and teacher-rated IC both predicted both Factor 1 (interpersonal and affective items) and Factor 2 (impulsivity and antisocial behavior items) of the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised, as did child IQ. Prenatal tobacco exposure and cortisol measured in adolescence predicted only Factor 1. When each factor was included in the prediction of the other, CD and IC no longer predicted Factor 1 but remained significant predictors of Factor 2.
遗憾的是，很少有研究探讨儿童期反社会人格特质与成人精神病态之间的联系。本研究使用了来自一个临床转诊样本的数据，该样本包含177名男孩，从招募时（7至12岁）开始每年进行评估，直至19岁。对人际冷酷（IC）的家长和教师评分进行了测试，以作为18岁和19岁时精神病态评分的预测指标。在回归模型中，品行障碍（CD）和教师评定的IC均能预测《精神病态核查表修订版》的因子1（人际和情感项目）和因子2（冲动和反社会行为项目），儿童智商也有此作用。青春期测量的产前烟草暴露和皮质醇仅能预测因子1。当将每个因子纳入对另一个因子的预测时，CD和IC不再能预测因子1，但仍是因子2的显著预测指标。
