  • Psychopaths probably make up around 20 per cent of the prison population in both the USA and Britain. They are four times more likely to re-offend than other released prisoners, yet they are just as likely to get parole. Little is known about the minds of psychopaths and what is really behind the horrific things they do - but Equinox tackles the subject in this insightful documentary. Professor Robert Hare - consulted by the FBI and British Home Office - is the undisputed oracle on the psychopathic mind.
    In Psychopaths, he reveals stunning new evidence behind their behaviour, and suggests people should look to the brain for clues and not bad upbringing. This programme examines the Psychopathy Checklist, IQ distribution and blending in to social norms; and reports the peculiar phenomenon that treatment programmes make psychopaths re-offend earlier and more aggressively.

      ​@@debralucas9519i wouldn't say "many of them" think they can are more intelligent than they actually are. I'd say that some are, but generally speaking, most are fairly clear on where they stand in terms of intelligence. Normally those who have more of the narcissistic and grandiose tendencies and characteristics of anti-social personality disorder (ASPD) are usually more prone to having a false or inflated sense of their own intelligence and intellectual ability. Also the lower IQ perons with ASPD/psychopathy, as well as those who have very high characteristics and tendancies of narcissism, usually tend to be more prone to violence and criminal behavior. Of course there are always some exceptions to this, and it's important to keep in mind that psychopathy is very much a spectrum, and that genuine ASPD psychopaths make up a very small percentage of the population.

      I remember in psychology class in college. My professor asked the class which professions are usually psychopaths are in. I was the only one who raised the hand and when called I said “politicians” she did say anything and looked back in the class and asked the same question. No one raised their hands so she said the answer - CEOs. I guess she wanted the class to gasp on the answer because she said prior to asking the question “you will not believe which profession psychopaths are according to psychology.” 😂😂😂
      Aside from CEOs, I’m also sticking with my answer- politicians!

      Childhood environment may serve to reinforce the worst inclinations or to direct behavior towards socially acceptable avenues - but regardless, the fundamental proclivity remains. When you speak of psychopathy being “learned,” you have to realize that children with the predisposition towards psychopathy usually grow up in a household where one of their parents is also a psychopath - namely the one they inherited the trait(s) from. To the extent that the other parent is normative, s/he opted to pursue a relationship with a disordered individual - so their capacity to identify deviant behavior and deter it wouldn’t likely be all that developed.

      If you burn your hand on the stove you will then be able to have empathy when you see someone else do it or they tell you about it happening to them. You know how they feel because you went through the same.
      As we grow and this happens more and more we’re able to apply that to things we may not have experienced ourselves. We can imagine ourselves in similar situations and have empathy for others because of that.

    As a neuroscientist specializing in addiction I'd argue that psychopathy has a limbic system element that not only includes the amygdala & the PFC/OFC but also the nucleus accumbens (NAc) which functions in pleasure seeking & habit formation. Psychopaths often report feeling less pleasure from typically pleasant things than non-psychopaths n therefore feel the need to participate in extreme behaviors in order to feel "average/normal" pleasure/excitement. Also similar to addictive disorders psychopaths often escalate their extreme behaviors as time progesses. Gauging the extent of this deficit as well as how it escalates towards habit formation in psychopaths could definitely reveal some potential avenues for intervention.

I like to think I'm a pretty empathetic person, but apparently I'm a bit less than average. I would guess that 3% comes from trauma and being very bitter and distrusting towards people in general.

      My ex was diagnosed as a sociopath. He has narcissistic personality disorder and borderline personality disorder. The amount of dysfunction he spread was astronomical. Every person he's ever come in contact with, he has manipulated and used for his own gain. When he was diagnosed, they basically told him there was nothing they could do to help him and sent him on his way despite his insistence on harming himself and others. What became apparent in that moment is that these professionals make their money off of the people sociopaths and psycopaths take advantage of.
      I believe more research is needed because until we figure out these people among us without empathy or compassion, that wreak havoc on people's lives, we risk their damaging influence upon those who are most vulnerable.

As I was coming to that age of really understanding how brutally unfair the world rlly is, I’d have to leave wherever I’d been if I saw someone with a handicap or a disorder. Spent a lot of time in the hospital as I was a sickly kid and it was completely overwhelming as I def had it better than 99%, as I had two kidneys had one bitten the dust. I suffered from massive anxiety as well. Panic attacks that lead to vertigo. Nothing like being convinced your heart is going to explode as you can’t tell which way is which/have your chest feel like it’s on fire or not be able to sleep to the point your sitting up in bed, wide eyed watching dust particles as if they’re snowflakes in the wind. Unfortunately, it all lead to isolation and drugs as I just wanted to be numb as I became as mean as fear is strong. I’m sorry you had to deal with that, I can only imagine how brutal it is in middle school/high school but as an adult who just wants to get the 9-5 over with and get tf home.

    I have ASPD (anti-social personality disorder) and I don't share all the same traits as others with the same condition has, but it's been a challenge to be a good, moral person in some aspects of my life.
    For example: I have empathy for people, but I didn't realize how it was different than others. I don't feel hate....because I have to care enough about something to hate it. If I don't love you and I don't like you....I don't care about you and can't really feel hatred for you 🤷‍♂️ Indifference, is more of what it feels like. As I grew up, I forced myself to have empathy for those that I don't know by, essentially, running a conscious algorithm in my brain. That helps me determine if I should be having sympathy or empathy. I don't have to do this with my family. I love them endlessly. Strangers.... 🤷‍♂️ ....I have to try and I wish it were embarrassing to say that, but it's not. it's just... the truth.
    I have to set a standard of radical honesty for myself. That is to say: no lies, even white lies. If I don't do this, I find myself lying for no reason. I used to get in trouble for lying when I had no clue why I lied in the first place. 🤦‍♂️ So, I have to act like a child and tell on myself. After awhile, it's easier to just not get into situations where I would have to lie than it is to lie. That makes lying more work and effort for less reward than being honest...even if it means so sudden gratification or gratification at all.
    I am not violent, in general, but... yeah, I could go on and on.
    That ☝ was me catching myself being egocentric (when my initial goal was to make it easier for others with ASPD to talk about the disorder) in real-time. 🤦‍♂️
    The point is: we are there among you. Some of us, however, are "pro-social psychopaths" .....meaning: *we get it and it's hard, but we are actually trying to get better or at least don't want to be this way anymore. not sure how many of us there are.... but 🙋‍♂️ "Here!"

    Here's a prediction. If there ever is a treatment for psychopathy that we, as a society can dictate, the wealthiest psychopaths (who are inflicting the most widespread harm on the rest of us,) will take care to not only avoid the diagnosis and treatment for themselves, but also for their psychopathic children. People who lack empathy tend to see that as a strength, and the rest of us as inferior and weak for caring about others. So naturally, they will not want to lose what they see as their super power. However, they will be delighted to have this treatment applied to others. Obviously, they would want to preserve their own "strength," but weaken everyone else.

    The Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson: Wikipedia
    This is a good counterpoint to Dr. Hare's work. In short, the subject is still very controversial, and two things that stand out by looking it over are that there is a significant medical industry that governments rely on that has sprung up around these diagnoses and an approach to it by the global media industry that requires some caution as sociopathic itself. Do these people exist? is not the point I’d suggest, but rather how best to deal with them. Remember, we once thought burning people, but mostly women, at the stake was a way of helping them by cleansing their souls in order for them to enter heaven?
    Social media provides a powerful contemporary intersection of many of those same sorts of forces.
    Watching this through, I'm a little concerned about the lack of objectivity from the prison industry, which appears to have had a significant input into this. That context is important if we understand that there is a tendency to universalise and normalise their specific aggregated points of view.

    I've wondered about the nature and nurture debate for years. Mainly because I had a terrific and happy childhood because I was raised by loving grandparents, while my widowed mother did her own thing, working, dating and spending time with friends. My father died when I was three, or six - depending on who asks my mother that question. I have no memory of the man, so I believe he died when I was three. When I was eleven she got married to a horrible man in a different country, whom she met while on holiday, which meant that the rest of my childhood was very unpleasant and kept me far away from all other family members. I had never really developed a connection to my mother and my stepfather made it clear that he would look only after his son, and that my mother would only look after me. He referred to me as, "Good for nothing." So he basically saw me as someone who was living in his house eating his food. I always thought that I was lucky to have had a good childhood, a good foundation for my first couple of years of life, which had made me a happy, confident little girl, because the next nineteen years or so were negative, to say the least. I survived because I read lots of books, had lots of hobbies and kept out of the way of these two, by spending a lot of time in my room. I did make a lot of decisions for my future while I was very young, such as never getting married and therefore never having children, after seeing first hand what marrying the wrong man can lead to. I never regretted this decision, it actually suits my personality. I like to be alone, since I enjoy reading, writing and working as a graphic artist. I always wondered though how I would have turned out differently if I had stayed with my grandparents instead of going away with my mother. I found out that this option had been discussed, when I came across a letter my mother had written to her then fiancé. I never thought about the father I never had because he was never spoken about, it's like he never existed. There were only two wedding photos of him, which I didn't see until I was an adult, so I never gave the fact that I didn't have a father a second thought. It wasn't until I was much older that I wondered what it would have been like if he had not died? This is also when it occurred to me that I had never met any of my father's family members, they were never part of our lives. I believe this was down to my mother not wanting to have anything to do with them.
    Anyway, I ended up having five dogs in my life, all of them Bouviers. All five dogs had many of the same characteristics in common, but each one had their very own personality. I treated all five dogs the same way, especially the last three, who lived in my house with me over the next thirty years. I noticed that each puppy, I got them each individually at eight weeks old, already had certain behaviors. For example Levi at eight weeks did not like to have his collar removed at night and put back on in the morning. He liked it to just stay on or stay off. He is seven years old now but still hates to have his collar touched. Thinking back I realized that whatever my dogs liked or disliked when they were puppies stayed with them throughout their adult years. You can train a dog to sit, lie down, etc., but some things will stick with them for life. I had my dogs for about ten and a half years each, until they died. I spent a lot of time with them because I worked from home, so I was very close to each dog and learned a lot about them. I started to wonder if the first eight weeks of their lives with the breeders I got them from, had already shaped their likes and dislikes and possibly their personalities. Noah for example was raised by a breeder who kept the puppies separated from their mothers, except for feeding times, in a fenced in enclosure. When I got him home it was obvious that he had never been in a house before because he was scared of everything, furniture, stairs, the TV, etc. He was even scared to go outside for a walk for the first couple of weeks. I also had to earn his trust. Levi came from a different breeder, where he was with his mother and siblings in a house and he wasn't scared of anything. He was lively, social, friendly, loving and cuddly when we went to pick him up and he is still that way to this day. Elsa was dropped off at my house on a rainy Saturday morning by Noah's breeder, but the puppies were from a breeder who had just separated from his wife and he was no longer able to take care of them. She was in a cage in the back of a truck with two of her brothers, also in cages on either side of her. She looked depressed after a very long trip the night before. I took her inside. Noah was still alive at the time and when she saw him she perked up. I fed her and the three of us got in my bed to rest. All three of us fell asleep and when we woke up we went for a walk around the block. During the walk we ran into a fellow dog owner who bent over to pet Elsa who backed away because she was terrified of him. Over the next ten and a half years Elsa backed away from any man who went to touch her. She was the best dog ever though with me, she loved cats and kittens and was an incredible watchdog. I believe that like dogs, humans to a certain extent, are what happens to us during our childhoods, it shapes us in many ways, but that just like dogs we already have our personality traits baked in. So someone who had loving parents will still end up becoming a murderer. I suppose you can learn to change some of the traits your childhood instilled in you, you might be lucky to marry someone who makes you a better person, but you could also end up with someone who has had a terrible upbringing as well and together you will be that couple that nobody wants to have around. My cousin and I often joke about the dysfunctional family we have come from, she being the daughter of my mother's brother, who according to my cousin was no picnic as a father. So the same grandparents who loved and doted on me, raised a son and daughter who both went on to be terrible parents. Both of their children moved as far away from them as possible as soon as they could, in my Uncle's case when he was 19. I'll never forget talking to my mother over lunch one day at my house, when she told me that she had always hated her parents. I was shocked. It turns out that my stepfather had grown up hating his mother, he mentioned this fact quite often. She died when she was quite young, on the other hand he adored his father. It's a wonder that any of us function at all on any level.
