This index measures "Dark Triad" traits in your personality. These are not clinical diagnoses but three personality styles that, when high, can create interpersonal challenges:
- Narcissism:A tendency toward feelings of grandiosity, entitlement, and self-focus, linked to the pursuit of admiration and social dominance.
- Machiavellianism:A tendency toward the strategic manipulation of others to achieve personal goals, often driven by a cynical and skeptical view of human nature.
- Psychopathy (sub-clinical traits):A tendency toward impulsivity, a lack of empathy, and a low concern for the welfare of others or social rules.
