Resumen
GONZALEZ MORAGA, Fernando Renee. The dark triad of personality: Machiavellianism, narcissism and psychopathy. An evolutionary look. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2015, vol.57, n.2, pp.253-265. ISSN 1794-3108.
What has been denominated as the Dark Triad of Personality - Triad (machiavellianism, subclinical narcissism and subclinical psychopathy is addressed here from an evolutionary look. The objective or this research is to review and revise the evidence submitted by evolutionary theorists with regard to the Triad, from an approach to the evolutionary scrutiny. For this purpose, the main characteristics in each one of these features are examined, as well as the instruments having been used to assess them, and the major areas where they have been studied. The evolutionary look states that the Triad features are dimensional and vary according to the diverse strategies employed by subjects to adapt themselves to the socioenvironmental characteristics surrounding them while they develop. These features are characterized by evidencing psychological violence, moral inhibition, manipulation, low kindness, selfishness, and difficulties to become aware or psych up in interpersonal and social interaction contexts.
