Conceptual work integrating constructs from mainstream personality research (especially so-called "dark" traits) and clinical psychopathology research has been limited. Herein, we propose socially and/or ethically aversive traits as "flavored" manifestations of the D factor of personality (D). We argue that the D framework provides the commonality of all aversive traits, including the aversive traits from the Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (AMPD), a more thorough theoretical foundation. Moreover, D covers aspects that are not captured by any of the aversive AMPD traits directly (e.g., greed), thus offering indications for possible expansions to the AMPD. We tested our predictions in two online studies ( = 1,781 and = 2,006) using quota-representative samples of the German population regarding age and gender. Twelve aversive traits from mainstream personality research and eight aversive AMPD traits were assessed together with consequential behavior in an economic game. Analyses using structural equation modeling overall confirmed predictions.
将主流人格研究(尤其是所谓的“阴暗”特质)和临床精神病理学研究的概念整合起来的工作一直受到限制。在此,我们提出将具有社会和/或伦理危害性的特质视为人格 D 因素(D)的“调味”表现。我们认为,D 框架为所有令人反感的特质提供了共性,包括人格障碍替代模型(AMPD)中的令人反感的特质,为更全面的理论基础提供了共性。此外,D 涵盖了任何直接的令人反感的 AMPD 特质都无法捕捉到的方面(例如贪婪),因此为 AMPD 的可能扩展提供了指示。我们在两项在线研究(n1=1781,n2=2006)中使用具有代表性的德国人口年龄和性别配额样本,对我们的预测进行了测试。使用经济博弈评估了来自主流人格研究的 12 种令人反感的特质和 8 种令人反感的 AMPD 特质以及后果行为。使用结构方程模型的分析总体上证实了预测。
