L'échelle de psychopathie (PCL-R). Hare a développé une procédure d'évaluation qui permet de mesurer les composantes affectives, interpersonnelles et comportementales de la psychopathie reliées de près aux conceptions traditionnelles du trouble telles que celles de Cleckley (1976) et de McCord et McCord (1956). Cette procédure est une entrevue semi-structurée consistant à interviewer le participant sur différents domaines de sa vie. Elle a pour avantage une meilleure identification des tentatives de simulation et de manipulation de la part de participants pouvant être habiles à duper. Elle s'accompagne d'une échelle, appelée Échelle de Psychopathie de Hare.

Your launch conditions and frequency of use will also affect your choice. For instance, if your local launch ramp is shallow, you may find it difficult to launch and retrieve your boat, on a bunk style trailer, since the bunks pretty much need to be covered with water in order to launch or retrieve. With a roller trailer, if you can get your bow to the back of the trailer, you can generally load.
