      Approach.

AB  - The present article argues that psychopathy is best understood as a collection of 
      traits from the Five-Factor Model of personality (FFM). We demonstrate that 
      specific FFM traits involved in psychopathy are well delineated; the same 
      personality profile emerges across methods. We review research demonstrating that 
      this FFM profile can be used to assess psychopathy, including the development of 
      a psychopathy-specific FFM assessment that appears to do an even better job of 
      assessing psychopathy than the NEO PI-R while remaining true to the basic 
      structural model. We demonstrate the advantages to understanding psychopathy in 
      this way. The FFM provides an assay of extant inventories, accounts for the 
      epidemiology of psychopathy, and explains the factor structure of various 
      inventories. The elemental view of psychopathy allows psychopathy to be built 
      from the ground up, trait by trait. Perhaps most importantly, the FFM is unique 
      in providing a connection to basic research in personality.
