Abstract

The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between dark triad and borderline personality traits on aggression following an ambiguous social situation. Unique to this study, we developed an in-vivo ambiguous experimental condition to evoke aggression. Unexpectedly, high narcissism was associated with less aggression in the ambiguous situation.
