在这项横断面研究中，我们调查了是否存在的冷酷无情（CU）的特点和情绪缺陷的痛苦刺激相结合，评估了计算机点探测任务，提高了侵略和犯罪的统计预测样本中的88个被拘留，主要是非洲裔美国人（68%）的青少年（M年龄= 15.57; SD = 1.28）。总体而言，自我报告的CU特征与自我报告的侵略和犯罪措施，但没有逮捕的官方记录。然而，CU特质和情绪缺陷之间存在相互作用，可用于预测自我报告的攻击性、自我报告的暴力犯罪和暴力逮捕记录。青少年高的CU特征和谁表现出赤字，他们的反应，以视觉上的痛苦，表现出最高水平的侵略和暴力犯罪。
In this cross-sectional study, we investigated whether the combination of the presence of callous-unemotional (CU) traits and emotional deficits to distressing stimuli, assessed by a computerized dot-probe task, enhanced the statistical prediction of aggression and delinquency in a sample of 88 detained and predominantly African-American (68%) adolescents (M age = 15.57; SD = 1.28). Overall, self-reported CU traits were associated with self-report measures of aggression and delinquency, but not with official records of arrests. However, there was an interaction between CU traits and emotional deficits for predicting self-reported aggression, self-reported violent delinquency, and a record of violent arrests. Youth high on CU traits and who showed a deficit in their responses to visual depictions of distress showed the highest levels of aggression and violent delinquency.
