Youth with psychopathy features are not a discrete class: a taxometric analysis / Daniel C. MURRIE in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 48-7 (July 2007)
[article]
Titre : Youth with psychopathy features are not a discrete class: a taxometric analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Daniel C. MURRIE, Auteur ; David K. MARCUS, Auteur ; Kevin S. DOUGLAS, Auteur ; Zina LEE, Auteur ; Randall T. SALEKIN, Auteur ; Gina VINCENT, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.714–723 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Psychopathy juvenile-psychopathy callous-unemotional taxometric dimensional antisocial conduct-disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Recently, researchers have sought to measure psychopathy-like features among youth in hopes of identifying children who may be progressing toward a particularly destructive form of adult pathology. However, it remains unclear whether psychopathy-like personality features among youth are best conceptualized as dimensional (distributed along a continuum) or taxonic (such that youth with psychopathic personality characteristics are qualitatively distinct from non-psychopathic youth).
Methods: This study applied taxometric analyses (MAMBAC, MAXEIG, and L-Mode) to scores from two primary measures of youth psychopathy features: the Psychopathy Checklist: Youth Version (N = 757) and the self-report Antisocial Process Screening Device (N = 489) among delinquent boys.
Results: All analyses supported a dimensional structure, indicating that psychopathy features among youth are best understood as existing along a continuum.
Conclusions: Although youth clearly vary in the degree to which they manifest psychopathy-like personality traits, there is no natural, discrete class of young ‘psychopaths.’ This finding has implications for developmental theory, treatment, assessment strategies, research, and clinical/forensic practice.En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2007.01734.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=142
