Abstract

This study examined two main questions: 1) Is there a direct link between psychopathic traits and intelligence? 2) Is the combination of psychopathic traits and high IQ related to more severe antisocial behaviour in adolescents? IOE Research Briefings are short descriptions of significant research findings, based on the wide range of projects carried out by IOE researchers.
