无畏气质的中心地位，因为它涉及到精神病的结构仍然是一个有争议的领域，一些研究人员认为无畏气质和精神病（以及相关的反社会行为）之间的关系可以通过与精神病的其他核心情感和人际关系特征（如冷酷无情（CU）特征）的共同关联来解释。作者对306名具有不同程度CU特征和反社会行为的个体进行了真实世界的主观恐惧体验调查，发现在低水平的主观恐惧体验中，主观恐惧的减少与更大的反社会行为相关。即使在控制了CU特征与反社会行为之间的正相关后，主观体验恐惧的减少仍然是反社会行为的显著预测因子。这些结果提供了证据，表明经历过的恐惧与反社会行为的关系低于主观经历的恐惧的平均水平，并且在控制了CU特征后，这种关系仍然存在。
The centrality of a fearless temperament as it relates to the construct of psychopathy remains an area of controversy, with some researchers arguing that the relationship between fearless temperament and psychopathy (and associated antisocial behavior) can be explained by shared associations with other core affective and interpersonal traits of psychopathy such as callous-unemotional (CU) traits. The authors investigated real-world subjectively experienced fear in 306 individuals with varying levels of CU traits and antisocial behavior and found that at low levels of subjective fear experience, decreases in subjective fear were associated with greater antisociality. Even after controlling for the positive relationship between CU traits and antisocial behavior, reduced subjectively experienced fear remained a significant predictor of antisocial behavior. These results provide evidence that experienced fear is related to antisocial behavior at lower than average levels of subjectively experienced fear and that this relationship persists after controlling for CU traits.
