To compare the factors and facets of psychopathy based on criminal characteristics in a sample of women in prison.
Descriptive, comparative, cross-sectional study composed of a sample of 41 women incarcerated in the Ambato prison in Ecuador. In an individual session, the Hare Psychopathy Scale Revised was applied.
Recidivist women, with a juvenile criminal history and who are admitted to the maximum-security ward, have a higher score in the affective facet of the PCL-R. In addition, those women who are in the maximum-security pavilion have scored high in factor 2 (social deviance), mainly in the antisocial aspect.
This subgroup of women in prison is characterized by lack of remorse, emotional insensitivity, manipulation, inability to accept responsibility for their own actions, and superficial affection. Further expansion of the study of psychopathy in women is required.

惯犯、有少年犯罪史和被关押在最高安全病房的女性,在 PCL-R 的情感方面得分较高。此外,那些在最高安全馆的女性在因子 2(社会偏差)上得分较高,主要是在反社会方面。
这组监狱中的女性的特点是缺乏悔恨、情感麻木、操纵、无法为自己的行为承担责任和表面的感情。需要进一步扩大对女性精神变态的研究。
