“The test’s authors (H. J. Eysenck & Eysenck, 1994) justify the low reliability of scores on the P scale by stating, It must be remembered that the P scale taps several different facets (hostility, cruelty, lack of empathy, nonconformism, etc.) which may hold reliabilities lower than would be true of a scale like E, which comprises largely sociability and activity items only."
