Explanation:

Psychoticism: In psychology, the term "psychoticism" is described as one of the three different traits present in the "PEN model of personality" which was proposed by a psychologist named Hans Eysenck.

Psychoticism is determined as a personality dimension in which an individual's personality is considered as full of interpersonal hostility and aggressiveness. However, an individual who is high on psychoticism tends to display "increased vulnerability" towards psychosis, for example, schizophrenia.
