Resumo
Na presente investigação pretendeu-se encontrar e explorar relações entre traços psicopáticos, níveis de Expressividade Emocional e traços de Personalidade. Para isso foram utilizados dois modelos distintos, concebidos para populações não-forenses, o modelo Bifatorial e o modelo Triárquico da Psicopatia. Os objetivos passaram por aferir diferenças entre homens e mulheres nas variáveis em estudo, avaliar a correlação entre traços Psicopáticos e níveis de Expressividade Emocional entre sujeitos com Psicopatia Primária e Secundária, encontrar correlações entre a Expressividade Emocional, os Cinco Grandes Fatores da Personalidade e as dimensões do modelo Triárquico da Psicopatia. A amostra é constituiu-se por 129 participantes, 88 do sexo feminino e 41 do sexo masculino, que responderam ao questionário informaticamente, através de um link partilhado com e entre colegas de faculdade que posteriormente o partilharam com os seus contactos. As idades dos participantes estão compreendidas entre os 17 e os 61 anos de idade (M = 30,57 e DP = 9,559). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que existem diferenças com significância estatística nos níveis de Psicopatia Total, Ousadia, Malvadez, Desinibição e Expressividade Emocional entre os sexos. Observou-se que ambos os fatores do modelo Bifatorial se correlacionam negativamente e de forma significativa com a Expressividade Emocional. Para o Modelo Triárquico, apenas a dimensão Malvadez se correlacionou significativamente com a Expressividade Emocional, mas positivamente. Verificou-se que sujeitos com níveis elevados Psicopatia Primária ou Secundária são menos expressivos emocionalmente do que os sem patologia. Relativamente aos CGF, obtiveram-se resultados significativos entre as variáveis em estudo, onde se destacam a correlação positiva e significativa da Malvadez com a Agradabilidade e a negativa igualmente significativa da Ousadia com a Extroversão e com a Abertura à Experiencia.
The present study aims to explore the relationships among psychopathic traits, levels of Emotional Expressivity and Personality traits. Two different models designed for non-forensic populations were used, the two-factor model of psychopathy and the Triarchic model of Psychopathy. The objectives were to evaluate differences between genders in scores obtained to all the variables in study, assessing the correlation between psychopathic traits and levels of Emotional Expressivity between subjects with Primary Psychopathy and Secondary Psychopathy, to find correlations between Emotional Expressivity, the Big Five Personality Factors and the three dimensions of the Triarchic model of Psychopathy. The sample consisted of 129 participants, 88 female and 41 male, who answered to an online questionnaire, through a link shared between colleagues. The ages of the participants were between 17 and 61 years old (M = 30.57, SD = 9.559). The results showed that there are significant differences in the levels of Total Psychopathy, Boldness, Meanness, Disinhibition and Emotional Expressivity between genders. It was observed that both factors of two-factor model correlate negatively and significantly with Emotional Expressivity. For the Triarchic Model only Meanness scale correlated significantly with Emotional Expressivity although in a positive direction. It was found that subjects with high levels of Primary or Secondary Psychopathy are less emotionally expressive than those without pathology. With regard to the Big Five Personality factos, significant results were found among the variables in study, like the positive and significant correlation of Meanness with Agreeableness and equally significant and negative relationship of Boldness with Extraversion and Openness.
