Bystanders have an important role in preventing sexual violence, but they are often reluctant to intervene due to a range of barriers. In this study, we investigated relationships between the Dark Triad of personality (i.e. psychopathy, Machiavellianism and narcissism), rape myth acceptance and five bystander barriers. We addressed the paucity of research by collecting data from three countries (Indonesia, Singapore, and United Kingdom). In total, 716 University staff and students participated in an online survey. We found very few country-level differences in the correlations between the variables. In regression analyses, Machiavellianism and rape myth acceptance both had significant, positive relationships with failure to identify risk, failure to take responsibility, skills deficits and audience inhibition. Narcissism and psychopathy were significantly, negatively associated with audience inhibition and skills deficits. Findings indicate similarity in predictors of perceived barriers to bystander intervention across the three countries.
旁观者在预防性暴力方面起着重要作用，但由于一系列障碍，他们往往不愿意干预。在这项研究中，我们调查了人格的黑暗三极（即精神病态、马基雅维利主义和自恋）、强奸神话接受度和五个旁观者障碍之间的关系。我们通过从三个国家（印度尼西亚、新加坡和英国）收集数据来解决研究不足的问题。共有 716 名大学教职员工和学生参加了在线调查。我们发现，变量之间的相关性在国家层面上几乎没有差异。在回归分析中，马基雅维利主义和强奸神话接受度都与识别风险失败、承担责任失败、技能缺陷和观众抑制有显著的正相关关系。自恋和精神病态与观众抑制和技能缺陷呈显著负相关。研究结果表明，在这三个国家，对旁观者干预的感知障碍的预测因素具有相似性。
