(1) Background: there is an ongoing debate about whether psychopathic traits increase or decrease cognitive empathy/Theory of Mind. (2) Methods: using a representative sample of 204 Spanish convicted inmates incarcerated at the Pereiro de Aguiar Penitentiary in Ourense, Spain, we investigated the relationship between two tools for the assessment of psychopathy, the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R) and the Comprehensive Assessment of Psychopathic Personality (CAPP), and the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (RMET), a well-known measure of cognitive empathy. (3) Results: The results showed no clear connection between the scores on the psychopathy assessment tools and RMET performance. This lack of association was stronger when the age variable was included in the multivariate analysis. (4) Conclusions: the results of this study failed to detect any clear link between psychopathy and cognitive empathy performance. Accordingly, our results indicate that psychopathy neither improves nor worsens cognitive empathy.
（1）背景：关于精神病态特质会增强还是降低认知共情/心理理论，目前仍存在争议。（2）方法：我们以西班牙奥伦塞佩雷罗·德阿吉亚尔监狱关押的204名西班牙罪犯为代表性样本，研究了两种精神病态评估工具，即《精神病态核查表修订版》（PCL - R）和《精神病态人格综合评估》（CAPP），与知名的认知共情测量工具《读心术测试》（RMET）之间的关系。（3）结果：结果表明，精神病态评估工具的得分与RMET表现之间没有明显关联。当在多变量分析中纳入年龄变量时，这种缺乏关联的情况更为明显。（4）结论：本研究结果未能发现精神病态与认知共情表现之间存在任何明显联系。因此，我们的结果表明，精神病态既不会提高也不会降低认知共情。
