Alexithymia is a trait involving difficulty identifying feelings (DIF), difficulty describing feelings (DDF) and externally orientated thinking (EOT). It is a risk factor for criminal behaviour. It is commonly assessed with the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS‐20), but the psychometrics of the TAS‐20 have not been tested across the range of offender populations, and it has been suggested it might be unsuitable in incarcerated offenders.

在法医环境中评估读写障碍：被监禁的成年罪犯中的20项多伦多Alexithymia量表的心理计量学特性

Alexithymia是一种特质，涉及难以识别感觉（DIF），难以描述感觉（DDF）和面向外部的思维（EOT）。这是犯罪行为的风险因素。通常使用多伦多Alexithymia量表（TAS-20）进行评估，但尚未在各种犯罪人口中对TAS-20的心理计量学进行过测试，并且建议它可能不适用于被监禁的犯罪者。
