Summary of estimates from multiple regression models predicting psychopathy scores from testosterone/cortisol AUC ratio score, age, and start time of stressor session. Postive beta values represent higher ratio scores (higher testosterone, lower cortisol) in individuals with higher psychopathy scores.
