The Dark Side of Personality WF-PS-DSP-ER
Most research on personality focuses on the light side. Indeed, some people think that it is inappropriate to even call dark side traits personality traits and instead they prefer the idea that they are disordered traits. This is a rather limited and alarmist perspective. In this class we review the method and research on several traits that are often considered pathologies from a clinical perspective but might be part of the normal range of personality when studied in the population at large.
