Abstract：
Child psychopathic traits appear to be associated with negative outcomes. Despite the study of youth psychopathy often relying on multiple reporters (e.g., child, caregivers, teachers), there is limited insight into how much information these various sources contribute and moreover, how this information is integrated. The present study sought to address this gap in the literature by examining the magnitude of relationships between self- and other-reported youth psychopathy and negative outcomes (e.g., delinquency, aggression) using a meta-analytic approach. Results revealed a moderate association between psychopathic traits and negative outcomes. Moderator analyses showed a greater relationship for other- than self-reported psychopathy, although not to a substantive extent. Results further indicated the magnitude of the overall psychopathy-negative outcomes association was stronger for externalizing than internalizing outcomes. Study findings can inform improvements in the assessment of youth psychopathy across research and practice, in addition to advancing our understanding of the utility of psychopathic traits in the prediction of clinically relevant outcomes. This review also provides guidance for future multisource raters and source-specific information in the study of psychopathy in youth.
摘要：
儿童精神病特征似乎与负面结果有关。尽管对青年精神病的研究经常依赖于多个记者(例如，孩子,看护者,教师)，对这些不同来源贡献了多少信息的洞察力有限，而且，这些信息是如何整合的。本研究试图通过检查自我和他人报告的青年精神病与负面结果之间的关系程度来解决文献中的这一差距(例如，犯罪,侵略)使用元分析方法。结果显示，精神病特征与负面结果之间存在中度关联。主持人分析显示，与自我报告的精神病患者的关系更大，虽然没有实质性的程度。结果进一步表明，总体精神病阴性结果关联的程度对于外在化结果比内在化结果更强。研究结果可以在研究和实践中改善对青年精神病的评估，除了提高我们对精神病特征在临床相关结局预测中的实用性的理解。这篇评论还为未来的多源评估者和青少年精神病研究中的特定源信息提供了指导。
