摘要

The low self-control psychopathic traits scale (LSCPTS) represents an important advancement linking ‘antisocial core’ traits drawn from both criminology and psychology to deviant and risky behavior. The current study adds to the emergent literature utilizing this theoretical measure by investigating how it relates to risky behavior occurring within digital spaces. Drawing on survey data collected from a large sample of U.S. adults, we find that the LSCPTS and its constituent components are associated with an increased likelihood of Dark Web access, greater cyber victimization, and poorer cyber hygiene practices. In this manner, we extend the generality of the LSCPTS and the antisocial core to digital behaviors and outline avenues for future research.
