Att man analyserar hur psykopater uttrycker sig både i skrift och tal är intressant, psykopater uttrycker sig lite annorlunda, här nedan i artikeln finns beskrivet hur individer med egenskaper och beteenden som räknas in i den mörka triaden, "the dark triad", psykopati, narcissism och Machiavellianism, uttrycker sig på internet. Bland annat är det vanligt att de är aggressiva i sin respons till andra, att de använder ord som hata och svärord. De använder sig också av ordet "oss" och utfyllnadsord som exempelvis "blah" och "um":
Forbes - Using Twitter To Identify Psychopaths

People’s nasty traits have a way of revealing themselves on social networks: in writing. Or rather in how they write. That means an analysis of how someone tweets could reveal whether he or she is narcissistic, Machiavellian, or psychopathic, according to researchers who plan to present their findings at DefCon next week.
What are some of the Twitter stylings of these undesirables? Curse words. Angry responses to other people, including swearing and use of the word “hate.” Using the word “we.” Using periods. Using filler words such as “blah” and “I mean” and “um.”
The research team recruited regular Twitter users to take part in the study. Those efforts were helped by British actor/comedian Stephen Fry and skateboarder Tony Hawk who each tweeted about it, and sent users to BigFive.me, where participants took a personality test which rated them from 1-5 for eight traits, including the “dark triad: psychopathy, narcissism, and Machiavellianism,” says Sumner. Over 3,000 users then allowed their public tweets to be downloaded for study — Incentive: one lucky participant won an iPad — and over 2,900 of those were put into a data-set that the Online Privacy Foundation turned over to Kaggle users to work their big data magic on. Of the 2,900, about 41 users were certifiable, i.e., rated high for all of the nasty traits. Everyone else fell in a spectrum. (We all have these traits, to a greater or lesser extent.)
