The triarchic model of psychopathy (Patrick, Fowles, & Krueger, 2009) comprises 3 phenotypic domains: Meanness, Disinhibition, and Boldness. Ongoing controversy surrounds the relevance of Boldness in the conceptualization and assessment of psychopathy. In the current study, undergraduate students (N = 439) completed the Triarchic Psychopathy Measure (Patrick, 2010) to examine the association between Boldness and a host of theoretically relevant external criteria. Boldness was generally unrelated to either prosocial or harmful criteria. Boldness rarely provided incremental value above or interacted with Meanness and Disinhibition with respect to external criteria. Curvilinear effects of Boldness rarely emerged. The findings suggest that Boldness might not be a central construct in the definition of psychopathic personality disorder. Implications for the 5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (American Psychiatric Association, 2013) psychopathic specifier are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record
精神病态的三元模型（帕特里克、福尔斯和克鲁格，2009年）包含三个表型领域：冷酷、冲动和无畏。关于无畏在精神病态概念化和评估中的相关性，目前仍存在争议。在本研究中，本科生（N = 439）完成了三元精神病态量表（帕特里克，2010年），以检验无畏与一系列理论上相关的外部标准之间的关联。无畏通常与亲社会或有害标准均无关联。在外部标准方面，无畏很少能提供额外价值，也很少与冷酷和冲动产生交互作用。无畏的曲线效应也很少出现。研究结果表明，无畏可能不是精神病态人格障碍定义中的核心结构。本文还讨论了其对《精神障碍诊断与统计手册》第5版（美国精神病学协会，2013年）中精神病态说明符的影响。（PsycINFO数据库记录）
