Respond to 26 statements by rating how much each statement applies. Completion typically takes about 5 minutes.

How are results reported and interpreted?

Results are scored as two factor scores and an overall score, with higher scores indicating stronger trait expression. Interpretation should consider the assessment context and any other available data.

The wording and scoring follow the original 1995 version. Scores can be compared with published findings that use the same format.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale (LSRP) Test

psychopathy

This self-report measure assesses psychopathic personality features in nonforensic, community-based samples. The Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale (LSRP) is designed for trait-level screening and research use rather than diagnostic classification.

It includes 26 items and typically requires about 5 minutes to complete. Item responses are used to estimate two broad dimensions commonly described as primary (callous, low-affect interpersonal style) and secondary (impulsive, irresponsible behavioral tendencies) psychopathy.

When used as intended, the Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale (LSRP) can support individual difference research, program evaluation, or supplementary clinical formulation, with interpretation guided by the broader assessment context and appropriate psychometric standards.
