Differentiating the Dark Triad Within the Interpersonal Circumplex
Abstract
The Dark Triad of personalities—Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy—all project onto Quadrant 2 of the interpersonal circumplex. That spatial similarity reflects their common interpersonal exploitativeness. An explanation of their distinctive behavioral tactics, however, requires both circumplex location and a specification of two moderators—temporal orientation and identity need. Temporal orientation (strategic vs. impulsive) distinguishes the strategic Machiavellians from the impulsive psychopaths and narcissists. Identity need distinguishes narcissists (high) from the psychopaths and Machiavellians (low). These two moderators may prove equally useful in the other quadrants by showing distinctions among variables that project onto the same location on the circumplex.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
