The perils of untested assumptions in theory testing: A reply to Patrick et al. (2020)

This article is a comment responding to a critique by Patrick et. al (2020) of the authors' recent study that raised questions regarding the three-factor model of the Triarchic Psychopathy Measure (TriPM). The reply demonstrates additional problems with the three-factor TriPM model and shows that the seven-factor model out-performs the three-factor model in predicting correlates of psychopathy.
