A confirmatory factor analysissupported thebifactormodel(e.g., CFI =0.95; TLI = 0.92; andRMSEA=0.07).In conclusion, this measure shows acceptable psychometric parameters, justifying its use to research purposes.

    Este estudo objetivou reunir evidências de validade e precisão do Dark Triad Dirty Dozen (DTDD). Para tanto, realizaram-se dois estudos. No Estudo 1 participaram 207 pessoas da população geral, que responderam o DTDDe ao Inventário dos Cinco Grandes Fatores da Personalidade. Uma análise de componentes principais revelou uma estrutura trifatorial: maquiavelismo (α = 0,85), narcisismo (α = 0,84) e psicopatia (α = 0,72), onde estes se correlacionaram negativamente com amabilidade. No Estudo 2 participaram 300pessoas da população geral, que responderam o DTDD. A análise fatorial confirmatória indicou que o melhor ajuste foi do modelo bifator (e.g., CFI= 0,95; TLI = 0,92 e RMSEA= 0,07). Conclui-se que esta medida apresenta parâmetros psicométricos aceitáveis, justificando seu uso para fins de pesquisa.
