Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the factor structure of the Self-Report Psychopathy Scale SRP-III with expectation for four factors (Callous Affect, Erratic Lifestyle, Antisocial Behaviour and Interpersonal Manipulation) and to verify if it is possible to predict results on the factor of SRP-III based on the results of dimensions of the Five Factor Model (Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Emotional Stability and Intellect). The sample comprised 190 psychology students from Croatian Studies, University of Zagreb (173 females and 17 males) with an average age of 21. For the purpose of this research, the Self-Report Psychopathy Scale SRP-III was used for the first time. Research results confirmed the factor structure of the original instrument and satisfactory reliability of four dimensions (Callous Affect, Erratic Lifestyle, Antisocial Behaviour and Impulsiveness and Manipulation). Also, the results showed that IPIP 50 Inventory can predict 49.5% of the variance for the psychopathy dimension of SRP-III. The most significant predictors were low agreeableness and conscientiousness, as it was theoretically expected, and extraversion, which has an undefined relationship to psychopathy, and intellect.
