Personality clusters such as the Dark and Light Triad are going through an exponential investigation. On the one hand, the Dark Triad traits characterize behaviors associated primarily with aversive outcomes, while on the other hand, the Light Triad traits are composed of behaviors linked to prosocial responses. Most studies that sought to map and investigate both triads are performed in North American or European contexts. Thus, we analyzed the structure of two of the most used short measures (i.e., Short Dark Triad and Light Triad Scale) in a sample of 2,335 adults from Poland, Brazil, Nigeria, Colombia, and Peru. We performed structural equation models to understand better the structure of both instruments in the five countries. Subsequently, we conducted a network analysis to observe the dynamic of both triads in countries with different cultures. Our results found that Machiavellianism is one of the more relevant traits in Latin American and European countries, while humanism is in African ones. These findings reaffirm that light and dark are not polar opposite traits, but at the same time, they represent distinct constructs.
