鉴于中国当前的环境状况和社会变迁，我们探讨了黑暗三人格特征（马基雅维利主义、自恋和精神病）与环境态度（对环境相关问题的信念）之间的关系，以及未来导向（为实现长期目标而计划的倾向）和地方依恋（与居住地的情感联系）在这些关系中的中介作用。通过使用中国大陆所有 31 个省份的全国样本（N= 998），我们发现黑暗三人格的心理测量结构在中国文化下得到了很好的证实。黑暗三人格作为一个整体与环境态度呈负相关，但当三个黑暗三人格特征同时被视为预测因素时，自恋与环境态度并不显着相关。未来取向和地方依恋介导了黑暗三人格与环境态度之间的关联。这些发现丰富了我们对环境态度相关变量的理解，为中国政府和其他发展中国家改善环境问题提供参考。自恋的独特性可以扩大对黑暗三人格特质的共性和多样性的理解，为中国文化下的黑暗三人格提供了一个有效的工具。
Given the current environmental situation and social change in China, we explored the relationships between the Dark Triad traits (Machiavellianism, narcissism and psychopathy) and environmental attitudes (beliefs regarding environmentally related issues), and the mediating roles of future orientation (the tendency to plan for meeting long‐term objectives) and place attachment (the emotional connection with the place of residence) in these relationships. Using a national sample from all 31 provinces of mainland China (N= 998), we found that the psychometric structure of the Dark Triad was well confirmed under Chinese culture. The Dark Triad as a whole was negatively related to environmental attitudes, but narcissism was not significantly associated with environmental attitudes when the three Dark Triad traits were considered as the predictors simultaneously. Future orientation and place attachment mediated the association between the Dark Triad and environmental attitudes. These findings enrich our understanding of the relevant variables of environmental attitudes and provide references for China's government and other developing countries to improve environmental issues. The uniqueness of narcissism could expand the understanding of the commonality and diversity among the Dark Triad traits, and an efficient tool of the Dark Triad was provided under Chinese culture.
