The Neurobiology of Psychopathy
Psychiatric Clinics of North America, 2008Numerous studies have tackled the complex challenge of understanding the neural substrates of psychopathy, revealing that brain abnormalities exist on several levels and in several structures. As we discover more about complex neural networks, it becomes increasingly difficult to clarify how these systems interact with each other to produce the ...

The Development of Psychopathy
Annual Review of Clinical Psychology, 2005In this review, we explore two aspects of the development of psychopathy. First, we examine what psychopathy looks like across time. Second, we ask where psychopathy comes from. Much recent empirical work supports the idea that psychopathy in childhood and adolescence looks much like psychopathy in adulthood.

Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 1996
The concept of mankind's dark side—of the beast within us all—is deeply entrenched in modern thought. Scientists from Darwin to Lorenz have explained the evolutionary and genetic basis ofthe propensity towards violence; writers from Shakespeare to Golding have described conflicts and struggles between passion and reason; and psychoanalysts from Freud ...

Abstract The definition of psychopathy relies at present largely on subjective psychological and psychiatric assessment of personality traits, and as such remains an inadequately defined - and therefore understood - concept. This paper reviews the background work on peripheral biochemistry involvement in emotions, and discusses in this context the ...
