Hare's triarchic model of psychopathy
Hare's triarchic model of psychopathy identifies three key features: boldness, meanness, and disinhibition. Boldness involves confidence, social assertiveness, and the ability to remain calm under stress. Meanness reflects a lack of empathy, exploitation of others, and a disregard for others’ feelings. Disinhibition relates to impulsivity, poor behavioral control, and difficulty managing impulses. Together, these traits help describe different aspects of psychopathic behavior, emphasizing emotional resilience, callousness, and impulsiveness. The model offers a comprehensive framework for understanding how these traits manifest and interact in psychopathic individuals.
