摘要

The current study aimed to culturally adapt and validate the Light Triad Scale (LTS) for use in the Greek language and sociocultural context. The LTS, comprising Faith in Humanity, Humanism, and Kantianism, reflects prosocial and moral dimensions of personality. Two independent samples of adults were used to conduct exploratory (Sample 1, N = 304) and confirmatory factor analyses (Sample 2, N = 309). Results supported a three-factor structure in line with LTS’ theoretical framework, providing evidence for the construct and structural validity of the model. While Faith in Humanity and Kantianism showed acceptable internal consistency and robust psychometric properties, the Humanism subscale yielded slightly lower reliability, consistent with prior findings. Moreover, the subscales demonstrated theoretically coherent correlations with the dark factor of personality. The results suggest that the Greek version of the LTS can be used to assess light personality traits, thereby contributing to cross-cultural research on prosocial orientation.
