Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The study aimed to explore the relationship between the Dark Triad personality traits, alexithymia, and emotional regulation difficulties among university students. The study was conducted on a sample of 258 students, who were assessed by using the Dark Triad personality scale (Adapted and standardized by Karim, 2016), the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20) developed by Bagby et al. (1994) and translated into Arabic by Al-Eidan (2019), and the Emotional Regulation Difficulties Scale (brief version) developed by Bjureberg et al. (2016) and translated into Arabic by Abadi et al. (2019). Results shows statistically significant positive correlation between students' scores on the Dark Triad personality scale and their scores on both the alexithymia and emotional regulation difficulties scales. In addition, results found statistically significant positive correlation between students' scores on the Dark Triad personality scale and their scores on both the alexithymia and emotional regulation difficulties scales. Moreover, there was a statistically significant positive correlation found between students' scores on the Dark Triad personality scale and their scores on both the alexithymia and emotional regulation difficulties scales. Also, results illustrate the prediction of Alexithymia in students based on their scores on the Dark Triad personality traits and emotional regulation difficulties scales. Finally, there weren't statistically significant differences found between students' average scores on the Dark Triad, alexithymia, and emotional regulation difficulties scales based on gender, academic specialization, or their interaction.

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.
