Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study aimed to develop an algorithm for assessing the Dark Triad based on a measure for pathological personality traits, the Dimensional Clinical Personality Inventory 2. The sample comprised 968 participants. We found four specific factors: Machiavellianism, psychopathy, vulnerable narcissism, and grandiose narcissism, and a general factor of dark traits. The IDCP-DT scale effectively distinguished people with different levels of dark personality traits. Sex differences were observed, with men and women demonstrating differences in the interpretation of some items. Overall, the IDCP-DT scale has the potential to identify people with different levels of dark personality traits in the general community.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
