- TB7 SPA Tutorial; The Dark Triad
- Joneson, Luevana. Adams (2012)
- Predictions
- Narcissism
- Desires more relationships and more sociable, correlate with ONE-NIGHT STANDS and FWB
- Psychopathy
- Exploitative and opportunistic, correlate with BOOTY CALLS
- Machia-vellianism
- A central trait for short-term mating, correlates with ANY relationship type
- DT traits bias towards casual v.s other relationship types
- Previous research suggested DT related to short-term mating environment, low standards, game playing & pragmatic love
- Due to impulsivity, long-term consequences and disagree-ability, DT should NOT (negatively) correlate with long-term relationships
- Sex differences in type preference mediated by DT
- Narcissism
- Design
- Studied relationship between DT and 4 types of relationship
- **********
- FWB
- One-night stands
- Serious romantic relationship
- Standardised personality tests for DT used
- Budget allocation task paradigm
- Studied relationship between DT and 4 types of relationship
- Findings
- Narcissism
- Correlated with preference to ALL relationship types
- Only ********** was lost when machiavelli was controlled for
- Negative correlation for serious relationships
- Partially mediated the sex difference for one night stands
- Correlated with preference to ALL relationship types
- Machia-vellianism
- After controlling for shared variance, was NOT CORRE-LATED WITH ANY TYPE
- Perhaps machia-vellianism is driven by the other DTs?
- After controlling for shared variance, was NOT CORRE-LATED WITH ANY TYPE
- Psychopathy
- Correlated with pref for **********
- Negative correlation for serious relationships
- Partially mediated the sex difference for **********s
- Females more interested in LONG TERM
- Narcissism
- Discussion
- Large age pool, differences in sexual behaviour
- Different sexualities included, but not controlled for
- Female biased sample (119 f v.s 91 m)
- DT research tends to focus on positive rather than negative correlations
- Issues with budget allocation tasks?
- Sex diffs for serious romance were partially mediated by narcissism and psychopathy?
