Abstract in brief

  • The study explores whether histrionic personality disorder (HPD) and antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) are different gender-based manifestations of psychopathy.
  • Findings showed weak and inconsistent evidence that HPD is a female-typed version of psychopathy, and ASPD is a male-typed version, with no strong links found between psychopathy and response modulation task performance.
  • The research highlights limitations and suggests areas for future studies to better understand the connections between these personality disorders and psychopathy across sexes.]
