Title (English)

The connection between psychopathic personality traits and antisocial behavior

over time: A cross-lagged model

Title (Swedish) Abstract

A sample of Swedish twins contacted at age 16-17 (n=2369) and at age 19-20 (n=1705) was used to investigate the connection between psychopathic personality traits and antisocial behavior from adolescence and early adulthood. We used an autoregressive model with two waves including cross-lagged effects and time specific correlations. Structural equation modeling using proc calis in SAS revealed a significant influence from psychopathic personality traits to antisocial behavior at a later point of time. This result is in line with earlier research. We further showed that antisocial behavior in adolescence has a minimal but still significant influence on psychopathic traits in early adulthood, which highlight the importance of further research in this area.
