Croatian Machiavellianism Scale and its relation with personality dimensions
Machiavellianism describes a set of interpersonal tactics and beliefs regarding human nature. Even though the theoretical concept implies multidimensionality, it was usually operationalized as an unidimensional construct. Whereas psychometric analyses and recent conceptualizations of the construct suggest a multidimensional approach, the aim of this study was the construction and psychometric evaluation of the Croatian multidimensional Machiavellianism scale. Data were collected on two samples of young adults in 1997 (N=444) and in 2007 (N=328) using the Croatian Machiavellianism scale and different personality measures (EPQ, BF bipolar scales and IPIP). Results of EFA on 1997 data showed that the Croatian Machiavellianism scale has 4 slightly correlated subscales with satisfactory metric characteristics (alpha coefficients between .77 and .82), while results of CFA on the 2007 sample showed that the cut-off indices are satisfactory (RMSEA=.045 ; CFI=.931 ; GFI=.934 ; AGFI=.919), indicating a good model fit. Regarding the relationship of Machiavellianism scales with personality dimension, the basic correlation matrices seem consistent over time and instruments, showing that Machiavellianism is consistently correlated with psychoticism, or agreeableness and contentiousness ; hence placing Machiavellianism along socioalizationally important dimensions of personality.
