Zusammenfassung:Secondary-like psychopathy in youth is often recognized in research as being the more problematic of the psychopathy variants. Little is known about the emergence of this variant in spite of early theory describing possible antecedents to the condition. The present research sought to evaluate these possible precursors among those resembling the secondary-like variant of psychopathy in a noninstitutionalized sample of youth. Findings from a probit path model examining data spanning several waves indicated that social context variables (poverty and maternal education), authoritarian parenting practices, and parent–child attachment were implicated in later downstream secondary-like psychopathy in mid-adolescence. Findings, implications and directions for future research are discussed.
