The psychometric properties of the 64-item Hare Self-Report Psychopathy Scale-III (SRP-III) and its abbreviated 28-item SRP-Short Form (SRP-SF; Paulhus, Neumann, & Hare, 2014) seem promising. Still, cross-cultural evidence for its construct validity in heterogeneous community samples remains relatively scarce. Moreover, little is known about the inter-changeability of both instruments. The present study addresses these research gaps by com-paring the SRP-III and SRP-SF factorial construct validity and nomological network in a Bel-gian community sample. The four-factor model of psychopathy was evaluated (N=1510) and the SRP-scales’ relationship with various external correlates (i.e. attachment, bullying and victimization, right-wing attitudes, right-wing authoritarianism and response styles) was ex-amined (n=210). Both SRP versions demonstrated a good fit for the four-factor model, and a considerable overlap with the nomological network of psychopathy. The results suggested that the SRP-SF provides a viable alternative to the SRP-III for assessment in the community. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
