This is a wonderful video to find on youtube, the very best of youtube. I am retired and I do so miss the university world of research and discussions about our research. This field is one I had hoped to learn more about. I can't thank you enough. Please keep posting these kind of videos, if only to keep an isolated old lady in England sane!
I'm not from England, but I suppose that you could attend lectures as a "guest" student. Nonetheless I agree that these videos are a rare and welcome variety on youtube
you’re so cute. i bet if you go by a university and ask to join in on an open lecture, you might be able to take part. or at least just meet some nice people to talk to and share your interests with. :) i’m sure someone will welcome you.
why is there not more research along David's line of thinking? This is probably the most accurate description of psychopathy that've heard and it's 8 years old at this point. All disorders are a manifestations of their time, so I really hope there is some information out there that follows this branch of thinking and might lead us to a better understanding of the current state of ASPD/Psychopathy
Maybe related, but I think the tide is moving away from the DSM style personality disorder categories. The ICD system has scrapped their versions and replaced them with a dimensional type model, that records all traits and their severity. The theory being that the DSM categories are reductive and the new system allows for a more holistic approach. It seems likely that the DSM will adopt a similar model in future.
Humanizing. I appreciate it aswell. If all of society is fine with projecting all their shame onto in super group of evil villain types, they create the environment for them to foster in their shit.
Thank you for posting this David. The video has been very resourceful to my research, developing hypotheses to explain why antisocs and psychopoos repeat maladaptive, harmful behaviour and their apparent deficiency in ability to alter planed course during reward attainment. Good presentation. Thanks again.

Good to hear your comments about the DSM, I agree with you completely! Is it a problem of dissenting views about the nature of psychopathy itself? One big mistake here is failing to recognize and study parent child caregiver interactions and family of origin history as these relate to psychopathy. Specifically, one must look at patterns of emotional, psychological and physical abuse. I worked with a psychopathic murder whose family told me he used to torture squirrels, such as putting one in the blender and turning on the powe. What parent , even 30 years ago, would not take their kid to a doctor, psychiatrist, do something, anything to understand and address such behaviour? Social and family experience must finally enter the dialogue on psychopathy to complete the picture.
Just an idea, what if the reason self reports of negative emotion don't fit the idea of a lack of emotional processing is down to a mechanism of functioning in the amygdala. What if the amygdala spits out extreme negative emotion when it lacks input? So when emotional processing is v low people feel anger and neg. emotion? When the amygdala has lesions you get sham rage you also get disinhibition with various brain injuries. I wonder if the amygdala needs some basic level of input to function normally?
~24 - Yes interesting, I don't know if this response is quite right or relevant, but it sounds like maybe the affecting of empathy - kind of like how folks only had a certain amount of willpower in the chocolate chip cookie study - tired out a certain part of the psychopathic and or aspd brain. But I'm just getting back to studying more after or while recovering from a major injury, so hopefully I'm not too off on those details... but thanks anyway for posting!
I feel there is a line. More attention needs to be paid to what puts an individual at risk to cross that line. However, that would require quite a bit of services/recognition/redirectment from child psychologist. The issue is that many individuals experience a certain amount of trauma, and may not ever have access to intervention... Also, since this runs in families, they tend to protect themselves- they deal with this as it becomes problematic, as there is little trust in the psychiatric community, as (especially in America) there is a pharmaceutical approach. I think this is wonderful information, and could be applied to help many people/individuals. The biggest focus remaining on teaching children to imagine they are another person, and give a description of how they would feel if they "were treated like that". My point, most if not all emotions stem off of personal wants/needs/desires; So, not entirely unemotional (which is a myth blown out of proportion, which has caused a large loss faith in modern psychological approaches- ASPD/Pshycopathy is not Autism). It all varies in degrees, and not everyone offends... Yet, when you are functional- no one wants to think their child may grow up to be an "offender", and no one can help redirect problematic behaviour (before it gets out of hand). * Unfortunately, this boils down to childhood interventions. Just like ADHD, it affects males and females differently.
I've listened to many lectures on this subject, this lecture gets right into it and looks at all the traits . I hate talks with humour. There's nothing funny about this subject.
I totally agree with your assessment even though a bit late. Environment matters, but the personal level matters more. IMHO and I hate that acronym.I grew up with many "multicutural" folks. In the projects and noticed this myself.There are good folk and there are bad "folk" who can be assisted or rehabbed. I've seen it work. Or they just made a life decision.
@@miriamgonczarska613 I have ASD (Asperger's) and Antisocial Personality Disorder (wich some psychologists say is impossible, they're politically correct idiots), starting therapy, my therapist attributes most of my antisocial tendencies (particularly aggressive behavior and sadism/malevonence), to the years of emotional torture through my entire school life ( non-stop, hardcore bullying, by both classmates and teachers, including a very homophobic principal). Also, the manipulation seems to be due to the fact that it was the only way of relating to people that didn't constantly end up in a horrible time!. And that's just a tiny bit of the history of damage to my paralimbic synapsis.
@miriamgonczarska613 autistic meltdown is just reactions to sensory and cognitive overwhelm, anyone would react that way to severe sensory torture and overstimulation, autism just makes someone more susceptible to severe overstimulation and reduces ability to cope with change/involuntary stimuli/breaking outside of plans or routines. Autistic people are also more likely to feel intense and overwhelming emotions but have difficulty identifying and managing them besides using repetitive behaviors to self-regulate, if the emotions get too overwhelming then self injury or violence might just be how the repetitive behaviors are expressed in those moments of extreme distress, otherwise might present as a shutdown or fleeing the situation
1 hour lecture about aspd and virtually ZERO mention about environmental factors such as physical abuse, torture, sexual abuse, emotional neglect etc. I you actually have done any research about human behaviour you will invariably find abuse and neglect. In Western science and medicine we only look at surface behaviour, symptoms etc. WE never ever look at underlying causes and motivations based on actual developmental science, ecology etc. Not ONE MENTION of trauma. Classic mechanistic scientism at work.
I think this study has touched on that. Try to go to some of his other lectures if you don’t pick it up here. He does talk about attempting to study this- and suggested there may be indications that babies/toddlers who are very sensitive are learning early on to turn off certain parts of the brain to protect him/herself- and that over time it’s so quick it appears the person has lost those emotions/reactions- it seems they need more research- primary psychopathy still leaning towards genetic based.
Narcissism isn't the same kind of lacking empathy, its just feeling self-justified in all situations and prioritizing themself over others They have the capacity for remorse and empathy but don't really use it and cope by self-justification

Good work. Not quite sure they're there yet, in identifying psychopaths, but this research is WAY closer than I've seen other places.

Hahaha psychopoos!!!
The comment you made is missing something. I think it's called sense.
Very interesting topic that raised many thought provoking questions. ..a glimpse into future generations. Thank you.

Social and family experience must finally enter the dialogue on psychopathy to complete the picture.
And of course the DSM fails to recognise any pathology in the authors.
It does also make you wonder if the family environment is caused because the family are also afflicted by the same genetics as the child.
@@zeddeka the latest understanding is that both genetics and environment cause psychopathy and sociopathy.
Sometimes you are blessed with a pearl like this on the net.... Thank You!!!!
Am I the only one that watches these lectures in my free time?
@Mateo No. I alsi love learning from the experts. 😊

Hard to follow....confusing me, switching back and forth. Also can’t see slides well.
same …..
i m a psychopath he' s spot on. keep up good work.
sociopath, still aspd.... cute cat btw🥰 love animals.... hate society and humanity 🤷🏻♀️

How is the Borderline meltdown similar to the anger dominance tantrum of ASPD/Psychopath.
Exelent question, it was my question exactly... I think that there is a lot of overlap. I would add what about autistic meltdown?

Impressive presentation!
Self assessment is always flawed, lols. The most problematic people are able to avoid exposure to criminality.
Magic: The Gathering, is not just a children's game. Anyone under 30 years of age will tell you that.
Very good info!

Not a single mention of narcissism?
It didn't mention football league either 😂🏈
@Miriam was your sarcastic reply necessary? I think not. It was shaming...😒🤨

They have the capacity for remorse and empathy but don't really use it and cope by self-justification

41 mins , you ARE right!!!!!!!!!!!!
30:04 Cough ! "Bless you..."
Maybe the person is not permitting other people to manipulate their emotions.
It's the inability to follow thru on an established life plan for me 🙃
0:02:32 - who was a bigger psychopath, David Koresh or Democrat Janet Reno?...
lol @ the MTG comments, which are pretty true btw
childrens card game I love this guy!
You're a stupid child for commenting with your reply so he's not wrong.
I'm a good guy i don't like to start trouble
😎
all were right handed? er ? left handedness and innate empathic disorders - oh hes a brain mechanic thinking type.
ok mr robot ok. lefthandedness and psychopathy are linked you know....
Tarquin Mahoney the psychopath I got tangled with was left handed
factor 1 and left-handedness are negatively related, factor 2 and left handedness are positively related
Left handedness is correlated with most mental/neurological disorders/divergence. Autism, adhd, learning disabilities, high creativity, etc
What a tedious way of presenting this information.
