根据三元模型，精神病态被概念化为包含3种不同的表型结构：大胆、刻薄和去抑制。在当前的研究中，对多维人格问卷（MPQ）这一正常范围的人格测量工具进行了评估，以确定其对这3种结构的表征情况。采用共识评级来确定与每种三元（Tri）结构最相关的MPQ项目。从代表每种结构的项目中制定了量表测量方法，并在社区样本（N = 176）和监禁样本（N = 240）中对这些量表的分数进行了聚合效度和区分效度评估。在这两个样本中，MPQ - Tri量表分数显示出良好的内部一致性，以及与各种类型的标准测量之间的关系，这些关系与基于三元模型的预测相符。研究结果根据其对在包含MPQ的已有数据集中进一步研究三元模型结构的影响进行了讨论，特别是纵向和具有遗传信息的数据集。
Psychopathy is conceptualized by the triarchic model as encompassing 3 distinct phenotypic constructs: boldness, meanness, and disinhibition. In the current study, the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ), a normal-range personality measure, was evaluated for representation of these 3 constructs. Consensus ratings were used to identify MPQ items most related to each triarchic (Tri) construct. Scale measures were developed from items indicative of each construct, and scores for these scales were evaluated for convergent and discriminant validity in community (N = 176) and incarcerated samples (N = 240). Across the 2 samples, MPQ-Tri scale scores demonstrated good internal consistencies and relationships with criterion measures of various types consistent with predictions based on the triarchic model. Findings are discussed in terms of their implications for further investigation of the triarchic model constructs in preexisting datasets that include the MPQ, in particular longitudinal and genetically informative datasets.
