Previous research has revealed a strong association between moral disengagement (MD) and criminal behaviour. However, few studies have attempted to examine the contribution of dark personalities to MD. This study aims to first analyse the differences between forensic and community samples in the use of MD strategies and then replicate the factorial structure of the Dark Triad Dirty Dozen scale in an incarcerated sample as a pre-condition to examine the relationship between dark triad (DT) traits (i.e. Machiavellianism, psychopathy and narcissism) and MD. The sample comprised 160 incarcerated and 160 community adults. Comparisons between these two groups demonstrate that the incarcerated sample scored higher in MD and DT than the community sample. Furthermore, different MD strategies were related to each of the DT traits in the forensic and community samples. The results of exploratory factor analysis for the incarcerated sample indicate adequate fit indices for a bifactorial model of the DT (a latent factor of the shared variance of these constructs named the global DT and three specific latent factors for each component of the DT). The SEM analysis for this bifactorial model and MD disclosed direct and significant relationships between the global DT and MD in the incarcerated adults, while the Machiavellianism factor was directly and significantly related to MD in the community adults. These results highlight the relevance of cognitive (i.e. MD) strategies in forensic contexts, especially in incarcerated adults who present high levels of this DT profile.

黑暗三合会对被监禁者和社区成年人道德脱离的贡献

先前的研究表明,道德脱离 (MD) 与犯罪行为之间存在很强的关联。然而,很少有研究试图检查黑暗人格对 MD 的贡献。本研究旨在首先分析法医样本和社区样本在使用 MD 策略方面的差异,然后在监禁样本中复制 Dark Triad Dirty Dozen 量表的因子结构作为检查黑暗黑社会 (DT ) 特质(即马基雅维利主义、精神病和自恋)和医学博士。样本包括 160 名被监禁的成年人和 160 名社区成年人。这两组之间的比较表明,被监禁的样本在 MD 和 DT 方面的得分高于社区样本。此外,不同的 MD 策略与法医和社区样本中的每个 DT 特征相关。被监禁样本的探索性因子分析结果表明 DT 的双因子模型具有足够的拟合指数(这些构造的共享方差的潜在因子称为全局 DT,以及 DT 的每个组成部分的三个特定潜在因子)。该双因素模型和 MD 的 SEM 分析揭示了被监禁成年人的整体 DT 和 MD 之间的直接和显着关系,而马基雅维利主义因素与社区成年人的 MD 直接且显着相关。这些结果突出了法医环境中认知(即 MD)策略的相关性,特别是在呈现高水平 DT 特征的被监禁成年人中。被监禁样本的探索性因子分析结果表明 DT 的双因子模型具有足够的拟合指数(这些构造的共享方差的潜在因子称为全局 DT,以及 DT 的每个组成部分的三个特定潜在因子)。该双因素模型和 MD 的 SEM 分析揭示了被监禁成年人的整体 DT 和 MD 之间的直接和显着关系,而马基雅维利主义因素与社区成年人的 MD 直接且显着相关。这些结果突出了法医环境中认知(即 MD)策略的相关性,特别是在呈现高水平 DT 特征的被监禁成年人中。被监禁样本的探索性因子分析结果表明 DT 的双因子模型具有足够的拟合指数(这些构造的共享方差的潜在因子称为全局 DT,以及 DT 的每个组成部分的三个特定潜在因子)。该双因素模型和 MD 的 SEM 分析揭示了被监禁成年人的整体 DT 和 MD 之间的直接和显着关系,而马基雅维利主义因素与社区成年人的 MD 直接且显着相关。这些结果突出了法医环境中认知(即 MD)策略的相关性,特别是在呈现高水平 DT 特征的被监禁成年人中。
