Which is a facet of Factor 1 in psychopathy?

• A. Interpersonal
• B. Lifestyle
• C. Antisocial
• D. Social deviance

Answer: (A)

Factor 1 in psychopathy covers the personality and affective traits, including elements of how a person relates to others—glibness or superficial charm, grandiosity, manipulation, deceitfulness, and a shallow or lacking empathy. The facet described is exactly the interpersonal cluster, which centers on those charm and manipulative characteristics that help a person influence others. The other terms align with Factor 2, which is about social deviance and behavioral patterns, such as impulsivity, a parasitic lifestyle, and antisocial conduct. So the interpersonal facet fits Factor 1, while the lifestyle and antisocial aspects align with Factor 2.
