The three dimensions of psychopathic traits in childhood have been consistently associated with high levels of conduct problems among children. However, little is known about the continuity and change in psychopathic traits among children with conduct problems. This study aimed to examine the homotypic continuity and change of the three dimensions of psychopathic traits from 8 to 14 years old among 370 children (40.3% girls) who were identified at school as having conduct problems at study inception. Results supported the structural continuity of the tridimensional model of psychopathic traits and revealed that the callous-unemotional dimension is more stable than the two other dimensions. However, the levels of the three dimensions of psychopathic traits remained high over time among a substantial number of children with conduct problems. This study has implications regarding the longitudinal assessment of psychopathic traits within this specific population.
儿童期精神病态特征的三个维度与儿童行为问题的高发水平一直相关。然而，对于行为问题儿童的精神病态特征在连续性和变化方面的了解甚少。本研究旨在检验在研究开始时被学校确定为有行为问题的 370 名儿童（40.3%为女孩）中，从 8 岁到 14 岁期间，精神病态特征三个维度的同型连续性和变化。结果支持了精神病态特征的三因素模型的结构连续性，并表明无情-情感迟钝维度比其他两个维度更稳定。然而，在相当多的有行为问题的儿童中，精神病态特征的三个维度的水平在很长一段时间内仍然很高。本研究对于在这一特定人群中对精神病态特征进行纵向评估具有重要意义。
