最近的研究表明,亚临床虐待狂应该被包括在黑暗三合会中。然而,关于虐待倾向作为一种特质的评估的研究还很缺乏。为了解决这个问题,我们开发了一种新的自我报告测量工具,施虐人格评估(ASP)。在研究1中,199名大学生完成了ASP的20个项目的初步版本,包括黑暗三合会的测量、宜人性、诚实-谦逊、情商和虐待倾向。内部一致性是可接受的,支持收敛效度。在减少到9个条目后,202名大学生完成了研究1的重复。再次支持了内部一致性和趋同效度。当ASP项目与黑暗三合会项目相结合时,探索性因素分析支持预期的四因素结构。这些结果为ASP作为一种新的亚临床虐待狂测量方法的可靠性和有效性提供了初步证据,适合与现有的黑暗三合会测量方法一起使用。(C)2016爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
Recent research suggests that subclinical sadism should be included in the Dark Triad. However, research on the assessment of sadism as a trait is lacking. To address this, we developed a new self-report measure, the Assessment of Sadistic Personality (ASP). In Study 1, 199 university students completed a preliminary 20-item version of the ASP, measures of the Dark Triad, agreeableness, honesty-humility, emotional intelligence, and sadistic tendencies. Internal consistency was acceptable and convergent validity was supported. After reducing the ASP to nine items, 202 university students completed a replication of Study 1. Internal consistency and convergent validity were again supported. When ASP items were combined with Dark Triad items, exploratory factor analysis supported the anticipated four-factor structure. These results provide preliminary evidence for the reliability and validity of the ASP as a new measure of subclinical sadism appropriate for use in conjunction with existing measures of the Dark Triad.
