The interpersonal facet of psychopathy includes symptoms of grandiosity, conning and manipulative behaviors, superficial charm, social dominance, and selfishness (Sellbom, 2011).
The affective facet is characterized by callousness, lack of empathy, and a lack of remorse (Sellbom, 2011).
The behavioral facet measures boredom susceptibility and unstable, angry, impulsive attitudes and behaviors (Garofalo et al., 2019; Thomson et al., 2020a). Research has demonstrated that the interpersonal facet is related to low agreeableness and higher levels of narcissism and moral disengagement (Garofalo et al., 2019). The affective facet is related to a lack of empathy, guilt, and morality, low agreeableness and conscientiousness, and higher levels of cold-heartedness (Garofalo et al., 2019). The behavioral facet is related to chronic antisocial behavior, emotion dysregulation, and impulsivity (Christian and Sellbom, 2016).
