An Internet troll is someone who enters an online discussion and posts comments designed to upset or disrupt the conversation.
"Dark Tetrad" personality traits include narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism.
(someone's been reading my possstss againnnnn)
In a study of 1200 people, Dark Tetrad scores were highest among people who said trolling was their favorite Internet activity.
In this month's issue of Personality and Individual Differences, a study was published that confirms what we all suspected: Internet trolls
are horrible people.
Let's start by getting our definitions straight: An Internet troll is someone who comes into a discussion and posts comments designed to
upset or disrupt the conversation. Often, in fact, it seems like there is no real purpose behind their comments except to upset everyone
else involved. Trolls will lie, exaggerate, and offend to get a response.
What kind of person would do this? Some Canadian researchers decided to find out.
Study: Internet Trolls and Dark Tetrad Personality Traits
They conducted two online studies with over 1,200 people, giving personality tests to each subject along with a survey about their Internet
commenting behavior. They were looking for evidence that linked trolling with the "Dark Tetrad" of personality traits: narcissism,
Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism.
They found that Dark Tetrad scores were highest among people who said trolling was their favorite Internet activity. To get an idea of how
much more prevalent these traits were among Internet trolls, one can refer to tables from the paper showing low Dark Tetrad scores for
everyone in the study ... except the trolls. Their scores for all four traits soar on the chart. The relationship between trolling and the
Dark Tetrad is so significant that the authors write in their paper:
"... the associations between sadism and GAIT (Global Assessment of Internet Trolling) scores were so strong that it might be said that
online trolls are prototypical everyday sadists." [emphasis added]
Trolls truly enjoy making you feel bad. To quote the authors once more (because this is a truly quotable article): "Both trolls and sadists
feel sadistic glee at the distress of others. Sadists just want to have fun ... and the Internet is their playground!"
The next time you encounter a troll online, remember:
These trolls are some truly difficult people.
It is your suffering that brings them pleasure, so the best thing you can do is ignore them.
