“…Athletes' dark triads were assessed using the Dark Triad Dirty Dozen-Japanese version (DTDD-J), a Japanese translation (Tamura et al, 2015) of the Dark Triad Dirty Dozen (Jonason & Webster, 2010). This scale consists of 12 items on three sub-scales: Machiavellianism，psychopathy，and narcissism.…”

“…This scale consists of 12 items on three sub-scales: Machiavellianism，psychopathy，and narcissism. The scale's reliability and validity have been established previously (Tamura et al, 2015). Respondents select answers from a five-point scale from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very true).…”

“…Such tendencies are not only considered athletes' personal problems; they also have a significant effect on society at large because athletes are regarded as public role models. The dark triad consists of normal personality traits that tend to cause problem behaviors: Machiavellianism, characterized by manipulation and exploitation of others; psychopathy, characterized by interpersonal and emotional qualities such as selfishness and remorselessness, and behavioral features such as impulsivity; and narcissism, characterized by the search for status and fame and by competitive, aggressive attitudes toward others (Jonason & Webster, 2010;Tamura, Oshio, Tanaka, Masui, & Jonason, 2015). To date, only a few studies have been conducted internationally on the dark triad's role in competitive sports.…”

Abstract:Investigated here were correlations between factors characteristic of competitive sports, for instance, type of athletic event and level of competition and the dark triad-Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and narcissism. A questionnaire survey was conducted with 506 Japanese university athletes (217 male and 289 female, mean age = 19.9, SD = 0.8). Three-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) indicated significant and marginally significant main effects of gender (male/female), type of athletic event (record-style events/gamestyle events), and competitive level (low-competitive group/high-competitive group) on total dark triad score and its sub-scale scores (Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and narcissism), as well as marginally significant two-way and three-way interactions among their specific combinations. These results suggest correlations between the dark triad and gender, type of athletic event, and competitive level. Future studies should likely investigate causal relationships between the dark triad's strength and athletes' processes of exhibiting performance and problem behaviors.

“…Shorter measures such as the Short Dark Triad (SD3; Jones & Paulhus, 2014) and the Dark Triad Dirty Dozen (DD; Jonason & Webster, 2010) have been developed to facilitate measurement. Australian scholars have collaborated internationally, translating the DD into to Polish (Czarna, Jonason, Dufner, & Kossowska, 2016), Japanese (Tamura, Oshio, Tanaka, Masui, & Jonason, 2015), German (Küfner, Dufner, & Back, 2015), Italian (Schimmenti et al, 2017), and Turkish (Özsoy, Rauthmann, Jonason, & Ardıç, 2017) to study the cross-cultural nature of the Dark Triad traits. Despite these criticisms, the older of these-the Dirty Dozen, which was developed by an Australian-based researcher-has been validated using item response theory (Gouveia, Monteiro, Gouveia, Athayde, & Cavalcanti, 2016;Medeiros, Monteiro, Gouveia, Nascimento, & Gouveia, 2017;Webster & Jonason, 2013), correlates with long-form measures of the Dark Triad traits (Jonason & Luévano, 2013;Jonason & Webster, 2010), predicts the same outcomes as longer measures (Jonason & Jackson, 2016), is associated with the domain general traits found in the HEXACO (Jonason & McCain, 2012), and has predictive validity in the form of associations with limited empathy in different countries (Jonason & Krause, 2013;Schimmenti et al, 2017).…”

As the number of translations expand, Australian scholars will be particularly well situated to engage in crosscultural work to understand the role of these traits on a global scale.…”

In this review, we detail three personality traits (i.e., narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism) that have gained popularity in the last decade as the 'Dark Triad'. These traits are useful to augment research on personality, like the Big Five traits, as they capture individual differences in 'darker' aspects of personality more fully. We briefly review the body of work surrounding these traits, how they are measured, how they can be understood through the exploration of their nomological network, and the role each trait plays in various domains like organisational psychology and interpersonal relationships. We then detail how an evolutionary paradigm can provide a novel and powerful way of understanding these traits. Finally, we explore broadspectrum concerns about the research and thoughts on how one might think about these issues.

This study examined whether two personality traits, attachment anxiety, and the Dark Triad, longitudinally promote stalking behaviors after romantic breakups through psychological maltreatment of partners during relationships and maladjusted reactions to breakups. We conducted a prospective longitudinal study across four waves of assessment for 1 year of individuals in romantic relationships in Japan. They completed measures of attachment anxiety, the Dark Triad, need for control, and psychological intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration at Wave 1, and measures of maladjusted reactions to breakups (i.e., anger and rumination) and stalking behaviors at a wave after breakups. The final sample consisted of 356 participants who were involved in romantic relationships at Wave 1 and left by their partners during the survey period. Correlational analysis showed that the Dark Triad at Wave 1 was significantly positively associated with future stalking behaviors, but attachment anxiety was not. Structural equation modeling showed that attachment anxiety and the Dark Triad increased future stalking behaviors after breakups through psychological IPV perpetration during relationships. Additionally, attachment anxiety increased future stalking behaviors through higher levels of postbreakup anger and rumination. Conversely, we did not find any indirect effects of the Dark Triad on stalking behaviors through these reactions toward breakups. Overall, these results suggest that it is necessary to consider personality traits that could damage intimate relationships and to focus on the quality of romantic relationships to prevent stalking after romantic breakups. These results also indicate that emotion regulation may be useful in preventing stalking caused by attachment anxiety.
