Quantification in biological x-ray microanalysis depends on accurate evaluation of mass loss. Although several studies have addressed the problem of electron beam induced mass loss from organic samples (eg., 1,2). uncertainty persists as to the dose dependence, the extent of loss, the elemental constituents affected, and the variation in loss for different materials and tissues. in the work described here, we used x-ray counting rate changes to measure mass loss in albumin (used as a quantification standard), salivary gland, and muscle.In order to measure mass loss at low doses (10-4 coul/cm2 ) large samples were needed. While freeze-dried salivary gland sections of the required dimensions were available, muscle sections of this size were difficult to obtain. To simulate large muscle sections, frog or rat muscle homogenate was injected between formvar films which were then stretched over slot grids and freeze-dried. Albumin samples were prepared by a similar procedure. using a solution of bovine serum albumin in water. Samples were irradiated in the STEM mode of a JEOL 100C.

As research on the Dark Triad (DT; the interrelated constructs of Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy) has accumulated, a subset of this research has focused on explicating what traits may account for the overlap among the DT members. Various candidate traits have been investigated, with evidence supporting several of them including Antagonism (vs. Agreeableness), Honesty-Humility, and Callousness and Interpersonal Manipulation (the latter two as a set). The present study sought to test the leading candidates against one another in their ability to account for the shared variance among the DT members. Using a pre-registered analytical plan, we found that Agreeableness (as measured by the IPIP-NEO-120), Honesty-Humility from the HEXACO, and the SRP-III subscales of Callous Affect and Interpersonal Manipulation accounted for all or nearly all of the shared variance among the DT members. BFI-based measures of Agreeableness (BFI and BFI-2) accounted for notably less variance in most cases. The results were consistent across two large samples (Ns of 627 and 628), and across various DT measurement approaches. We argue that the most parsimonious explanation for findings on the core of the DT is that such traits all fall under the umbrella of Antagonism.
