“…More specific examination of the psychopathy facets in these studies indicates that this positive association is entirely due to disinhibitory psychopathy traits (i.e., impulsivity, irresponsibility, sensation seeking, poor anger control; e.g., Blonigen et al, 2012;Patrick, Fowles, & Krueger, 2009). Subsequent research has shown that affective-interpersonal psychopathy traits (i.e., callousness, lack of empathy, remorselessness, shallow affect, grandiosity, deceitfulness, fearlessness, e.g., ) are negatively associated with PTSD (Pham, 2012;Willemsen et al, 2012), and that such traits are protective against development of this disorder when an individual is exposed to trauma (Willemsen et al, 2012).…”
