All four showed very high rank-order stability (rs ranged from .74 .81). In line principle, mean Machiavellianism psychopathy decreased linearly (ds were −0.18 −0.12). Moreover, model comparisons revealed systematic heterogeneity Machiavellianism’s linear curve, indicating young adults differ each other direction or steepness their developmental paths. also assessed self-esteem life satisfaction. Linear changes inversely related satisfaction (r −.39), making mean-level decrease appear adaptive. While findings concerning inconclusive, this provides incremental evidence apply and, potentially, psychopathy.
