Psychopathy as a Clinical and Empirical Construct : The PCL-SV was developed with the goal of creating a shorter psychopathy assessment that could be used to assess psychopathy in noncriminal settings and to screen for psychopathy in criminal settings. The PCL-SV consists of 12 items derived from the 20-item PCL-R. For the present article, we employed the four-factor structure recently proposed by Hare (2003).
~Three PCL:SV items assess an arrogant, deceitful interpersonal style (Facet 1): superficial, grandiose, and deceitful;
~3 items assess deficient affective experience (Facet 2): lacks remorse, lacks empathy, and does not accept responsibility;
~3 items assess an impulsive and irresponsible behavioral style (Facet 3): impulsivity, lacks goals, and irresponsible; and
~3 items assess antisocial behavior (Facet 4): poor behavioral controls, adolescent antisocial behavior, and adult antisocial behavior.
The 12 items together provide an overall index of psychopathy. https://nopsychos.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/psychopathy-as-a-clinical-and-empirical-construct-hareandneumannarcp2008.pdf

- Psychopathic traits can be measured reliably and meaningfully through self-report in 9 to 12 year old children from the general population using the Youth Psychopathic traits Inventory—Child Version (YPI-CV) “People who develop this socially devastating personality deficit cause substantial harm to society, both economically through legal processes, institutionalization, and treatments as well as humanistically through their harm to their family members, children, and the victims of their crimes. Early prevention of this disorder should thus receive high priority” https://nopsychos.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/measuring-psychopathic-traits-in-children-baardewijk_international-journal-of-law-and-psychiatry_313_2008_u.pdf

Psychopaths in the Workplace
- B-Scan 360: Babiak and Hare developed the Business-Scan 360. The B-Scan 360 was modeled on a structural model of the PCL-R (Hare, 2003; Neumann, Hare, & Newman, 2007). Mathieu, Hare, Jones, Babiak, and Neumann (2013) derived a reliable 20-item, four-factor model that is consistent with the PCL-R structural model. They labeled the four factors as follows: Manipulative/Unethical; Callous/Insensitive; Unreliable/Unfocused; and Intimidating/Aggressive. It is an evaluation tool to help employees to determine traits of psychopathy, including manipulation and ruthless exploitation of others, lack of conscience and feelings for others and impulsive and reckless behavior, in their supervisors.
