Theoretical background
The DD is a 12-item brief self-report measure of the Dark Triad traits and is composed of three scales: Machiavellianism, Psychopathy, and Narcissism. Each scale can be scored by adding the respective items on a 5-point ordinal format (from Strongly disagree =1, to Strongly agree =5). The use of a total score is not recommended. Higher scores indicate higher levels of these traits.
