Understanding the development of personality is a growing field; however, little is known about
the manifestation of subclinical psychopathic traits. Based on the knowledge that childhood
trauma/abuse is known to contribute to the development of clinical psychopathy, it was
hypothesized that the experience of physical, sexual, emotional abuse and/or neglect during
childhood and/or adolescents as well as the age and length of exposure to abuse would contribute
to the development of subclinical psychopathy. A community sample of 160 participants
completed an online questionnaire consisting of demographic questions, the Levenson Self-
Report Psychopathy Scale, and The Child Abuse and Trauma Scale. Pearson’s Product Moment
Correlation coefficient found that there was no relationship between the age of exposure to
trauma, the length of exposure to trauma, and the manifestation of subclinical psychopathy.
Descriptive statistics revealed that those who did not experience childhood abuse received a low
or medium subclinical psychopathy score.
Keywords: Subclinical psychopathy, childhood trauma, adolescent trauma.
