Abstract
Psychopathic personality is an important predictor of criminal behaviors. Our research examined the relationship between the Big 5 personality traits and the components of psychopathy. Results revealed emotional stability, conscientiousness, and agreeableness were negatively correlated with components of psychopathy, and extraversion positively correlated with one aspect of psychopathy.
