It turns out all three traits have a pretty heavy genetic foundation. But what really caught my eye—and honestly, it’s kind of wild to think about—is that Machiavellianism is the only one where your environment actually plays a massive role, meaning it’s way more susceptible to being learned through experience.🙂
Thanks a lot for the article! 👍
I’ve always had this gut feeling that Machiavellianism operates on a different level than those other two traits—almost like it's sitting in its own category... It's nice when you actually stumble upon a scientific paper that backs up exactly what you were already thinking.
