Long-term stability of self-reported psychopathic traits in former at-risk adolescents in youth welfare and juvenile justice institutions
The results of this study suggest a lower long-term stability of self-reported psychopathic traits over a time period of 10 years than was previously assumed in institutionalised youths over a shorter period of time. Research is needed to control for the influence of different aspects of caregiving on outcomes regarding psychopathic traits in order to better interpret these results.
