High Cube, Low Room - Collected Poems & Anxieties, 2010 - 2013
Contents:
Then the participants were grouped according to all the possible combinations of high and low dark trait scores to define the eight possible Dark Triad profiles: All analyses were conducted using SPSS version We opted to conduct t-tests between the profiles because it permitted us to compare profiles that differed in one malevolent trait but were similar in the other two.
The Dark Cube: dark character profiles and OCEAN
Thus, allowing us to understand conditional relationships between each malevolent character and each OCEAN trait cf. Moreover, since the dark traits are moderately correlated to each other, we found the t -test as a better solution that analysis of variance cf. As a second analysis, we conducted the same analysis between the dark traits and OCEAN controlling for gender, since the dark traits differ between males and females e. Nevertheless, the correlations were almost similar see Table 1. White cells mark bivariate correlations between dark traits and ocean; grey cells mark partial correlations between dark traits and ocean controlling for gender; black cells mark significant correlations between dark traits and OCEAN both bivariate and partial.
As in earlier studies e. The comparisons investigated the effect of extremes of each Dark Triad trait when the other two were held constant see Table 2 for the details. The only two clear associations were found between high narcissism and high extraversion and between high psychopathy and low agreeableness.
These findings are in line with the correlation analyses above. However, the rest of the results were complex interactions and not necessarily in line with a unified view of the dark traits or simple linear associations between the Big Five and the Dark Triad traits. In essence, our results showed that the relationship between one dark trait and OCEAN is valid only under certain conditions, that is, depending on individual scores in the other two dark traits.
The only OCEAN traits associated to malevolent character in any condition or dark character combination were extraversion-narcissism, suggesting that an individual high in narcissism would independently of the other two dark traits always behave as an extrovert, and psychopathy-agreeableness, suggesting that an individual high in psychopathy would independently of the other two dark traits always behave disagreeable. High levels of Machiavellianism were associated to low levels of conscientiousness, low levels of extraversion, low levels of agreeableness, and high levels neuroticism only when both narcissism and psychopathy were low Mnp vs.
In other words, these results suggest that, as long as the other two malevolent traits are low, high levels of Machiavellianism would lead to low sense of competence, disorderliness, low dutifulness, low self-discipline i. In addition, low levels of agreeableness were also associated to high Machiavellianism when psychopathy was also high but narcissism was low MnP vs.
In short, these results are partially in line with past research, however, only under the following conditions: This is surprising, because most research suggest that low agreeableness is the common core of the dark traits e. Even the correlation analyses in our study suggested a high Machiavellianism-low agreeableness correlation.
Our analyses, however, suggest that under certain conditions individuals high in Machiavellianism might or might not develop agreeableness. With the exception of its relation to extraversion, the results with regard to narcissism presented a more complex interaction with OCEAN. For example, narcissism was associated to high openness when both Machiavellianism and psychopathy were also high MNP vs. MnP and when both Machiavellianism and psychopathy were low mNp vs. High levels of narcissism were associated to low levels of neuroticism in most of the cases but not associated at all when Machiavellianism was low and psychopathy was high mNP vs.
Interestingly, psychopathy has been found to correlate negatively to neuroticism e. The findings presented here, however, suggest that both high and low neuroticism might be found in individuals high in psychopathy, hence suggesting the probability of both an emotionally stable and a emotionally instable psychopath. In addition, high levels of narcissism were associated to high levels of conscientiousness when both Machiavellianism and psychopathy were high at the same time MNP vs MnP.
At this point, as long as the other two traits are high, high levels of narcissism are associated to high openness i. Finally, as earlier stated, psychopathy was the only dark trait with a clear association to agreeableness that was consistent with the general idea of the Dark Triad having a common core: As in past studies using, high levels of psychopathy were associated to low levels of conscientiousness in most of the cases.
The only exception was when both Machiavellianism and narcissism were high MNP vs. That is, an individual high in psychopathy might or might not be conscientious when the other two malevolent character traits are high see for example the results between MNP vs. MnP in Table 2. In addition, as detailed earlier, high levels of psychopathy were associated to high levels of neuroticism when Machiavellianism was low and narcissism was high mNP vs.
The most obvious limitation is that our study was cross-sectional, thus, no causal effects can be discerned or established. Another limitation was that females represented However, the correlation analyses controlling for gender did not show any discrepancies that were noteworthy. It is also plausible to argue that dichotomizing into groups that are classified as being low or high on traits will likely cause loss of power that is equivalent to the loss in sample size e.

Steadily working since to recreate and repurpose the interiors of the castle—through wallpapered rooms, panels that collage photocopies and concrete, and jesmonite geode-like sculptures—the pair will open their latest installation this spring at Wentrup during Gallery Weekend Berlin.

ABOUT THE MAGAZINE
At 12 years old, Juntae emigrated, alone, from Korea to the United States to attend school. It was a deeply affecting experience for the artist, whose K-pop and propaganda-influenced videos, performances, and installations explore the intersections and cultural collisions between East and West. Now an MFA candidate at Columbia University, Juntae will soon be required to fulfill two years of mandatory military service in his home country of South Korea—a fact that has informed recent works such as Angry Hotel Since simultaneously launching a book of poetry and an exhibition at Tomorrow Gallery in , Yago has been exploring the ways that words and images inflect each other—the latest results of which will be shown at Parisian gallery High Art and in the Hammer Biennial in the coming months.
Her witty, often incisive works delve into human relationships and self-identity, ranging from sculptures pierced with chains and trinkets to works resembling book covers.

An arm reaches through lush greenery with a raised pinkie finger, gravitating towards a figure caught mid-air, wrapped in a flowing pink gown; one stocking-clad leg points to the sky, just a moment after launching a tiny shoe into the air, pictured nearby. The scene is familiar and enticing, but very different than the original, like a cover of a classic love song performed well by a modern-day pop singer.
Untitled Breuer , Admiralty Arch , It comes as little surprise that Reynolds, who makes intricate collages and assemblages that use printed matter as a medium, studied English literature at Oxford before moving on to visual art. Her practice often takes her to book stores or flea markets, where she combs through magazines, atlases, travel guides, and newspapers for source material that can create a dialogue between the past and present.

Now she uses the material as a canvas—distressed, stitched, bleached, even pockmarked with holes large enough to allow a glimpse of the wooden frame beneath. Dropit Changing Places , Incorporating a wide swath of contrasting materials, from knitted wool to fluorescent plexiglass, his practice draws heavily from the history of minimal art.
