Research on psychopathy has progressed considerably in recent years against the backdrop of important advances in the broader field of clinical psychological science. My major aim in this review is to encourage integration of investigative work on dispositional, biobehavioral, and developmental aspects of psychopathy with counterpart work on general psychopathology. Using the triarchic model of psychopathy as a frame of reference, I offer perspective on long-standing debates pertaining to the conceptualization and assessment of psychopathy, discuss how dispositional facets of psychopathy relate to subdimensions of internalizing and externalizing psychopathology, and summarize findings from contemporary biobehavioral and developmental research on psychopathy. I conclude by describing a systematic strategy for coordinating biobehavioral-developmental research on psychopathy that can enable it to be informed by, and help inform, ongoing research on mental health problems more broadly.

精神病：当前知识和未来方向


近年来，在临床心理科学这一更广泛领域取得重要进展的背景下，对精神病的研究取得了长足的进步。我在这篇评论中的主要目的是鼓励将精神病的性格、生物行为和发展方面的调查工作与一般精神病理学的对应工作相结合。以精神病的三元制模型为参考框架，我为与精神病的概念化和评估有关的长期辩论提供了观点，讨论了精神病的性格方面如何与内化和外化精神病理学的子维度相关，并总结了当代精神病生物行为和发展研究的结果。最后，我描述了一种协调精神病生物行为发展研究的系统策略，该策略可以使其能够更广泛地了解正在进行的心理健康问题研究，并帮助为正在进行的心理健康问题研究提供信息。
