Psychopathic traits, victim distress and aggression in children / Yoast VAN BAARDEWIJK in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 50-6 (June 2009)
[article]
Titre : Psychopathic traits, victim distress and aggression in children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yoast VAN BAARDEWIJK, Auteur ; Robert R. J. M. VERMEIREN, Auteur ; Hedy STEGGE, Auteur ; Brad J. BUSHMAN, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.718-725 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Psychopathy aggression victim-distress empathy children experiment Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: The relationship between psychopathic traits and aggression in children may be explained by their reduced sensitivity to signs of distress in others. Emotional cues such as fear and sadness function to make the perpetrator aware of the victim's distress and supposedly inhibit aggression. As children high in psychopathic traits show a reduced sensitivity to others' distress, these important interpersonal signals cannot perform their aggression inhibiting function. The present experiment tested the hypothesis that aggression in children with psychopathic traits can be attenuated by making distress cues more salient.
Methods: N = 224 participants from the community (53 % boys, M age = 10.81 years, SD = 0.92) played a computer-based competitive reaction-time game against a simulated opponent by blasting him or her with loud noise through a headphone. The salience of the opponent's distress was increased for half of the participants (randomly selected) by a written message expressing his or her fear. Psychopathic traits were assessed using the Youth Psychopathic traits Inventory – Child Version (Van Baardewijk et al., 2008).
Results: As expected, regression analysis showed that psychopathic traits were strongly related to aggression in the no distress condition but not in the distress condition. Thus, the relation between psychopathic traits and aggression depended upon the salience of the opponent's distress.
Conclusions: It was concluded that children with psychopathic traits are indeed prone to act aggressively, but also that this aggression is dynamic and is dependent upon circumstances. Their aggression can be attenuated by a salient display of others' distress. These results suggest that empathy based treatment techniques may reduce aggression in children with psychopathic traits.En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7610.2008.02023.x Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=756

Titre : What makes narcissists bloom? A framework for research on the etiology and development of narcissism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sander THOMAES, Auteur ; Hedy STEGGE, Auteur ; Brad J. BUSHMAN, Auteur ; Bram OROBIO DE CASTRO, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.1233-1247 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Narcissism is a dynamic form of personality characterized by a pervasive sense of grandiosity and self-importance, and by a need to obtain continuous self-validation from others. Very little is known about its etiology and development. What factors (e.g., temperament, parenting experiences) and processes (e.g., transactions between these factors over time) cause some children to become more narcissistic than others? When does narcissism first emerge, and how does narcissism develop over time? This article describes a framework for research on the etiology and development of narcissism, and recommends ten research priorities. This research should yield fundamental knowledge and should inform intervention efforts to minimize the negative impact narcissistic individuals have on themselves and on others.
