16PF QuestionnaireThe Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (16PF) is a self-report personality test developed over several decades of empirical research by Raymond B. Cattell, Maurice Tatsuoka and Herbert Eber. The 16PF provides a measure of personality and can also be used by psychologists, and other mental health professionals, as a clinical instrument to help diagnose psychiatric disorders, and help with prognosis and therapy planning.
PsychopathieLa psychopathie, des mots grecs : psyche, ψυχή () et pathos, πάθος (), est un trouble de la personnalité, caractérisé par un comportement antisocial, un manque de remords et un manque de « comportements humains », généralement associé dans la culture populaire à un mode de vie criminel et instable — bien que cette notion recouvre des types de personnalités bien intégrés dans la société voire considérés comme des modèles.
Negative affectivityNegative affectivity (NA), or negative affect, is a personality variable that involves the experience of negative emotions and poor self-concept. Negative affectivity subsumes a variety of negative emotions, including anger, contempt, disgust, guilt, fear, and nervousness. Low negative affectivity is characterized by frequent states of calmness and serenity, along with states of confidence, activeness, and great enthusiasm. Individuals differ in negative emotional reactivity.
