This study examined the relationship between psychopathy and traumatic stress. First, a sample of 48 male patients in a security hospital was assessed using the Psychopathy Checklist (Hare, 2003) and the Stanford Acute Stress Reactions Questionnaire (SASRQ; Cardena, Classen, Koopman, & Spiegel, 1996). Linear regression analyses suggested that the affect deficit component of psychopathy was the best negative predictor of avoidance, dissociation, and re-experiencing symptoms. The 13 highest-scoring psychopathy participants were then compared to the 13 lowest-scoring participants. Psychopaths differed from controls in terms of number but not type of traumatic events. They obtained significantly lower SASRQ total score, reflecting a lower level of traumatic symptomatology. The results are discussed in connection with the emotional deficit component of psychopathy.
本研究考察了精神病态和创伤后应激之间的关系。首先,使用《精神病态检查表》( Hare,2003 年)和《斯坦福急性应激反应问卷》(SASRQ;Cardena、Classen、Koopman 和 Spiegel,1996 年)对一家保安医院的 48 名男性患者进行了评估。线性回归分析表明,精神病态的情感缺陷成分是回避、分离和再体验症状的最佳负预测因子。然后,将得分最高的 13 名精神病态参与者与得分最低的 13 名参与者进行了比较。精神病态者与对照组在创伤事件的数量而非类型上存在差异。他们的 SASRQ 总分明显较低,反映出创伤症状的水平较低。研究结果与精神病态的情感缺陷成分有关。
