How to spot a Psychopath with high accuracy

[HelloJapan]

try the hare test.

This is the correct answer. I meet Hare a number of times when doing my Crim degree. I recall scoring a 5 or 7 when I did the test. My guess everyone in the Warroom averages a 20:/

You're ok Mid 20's and up is scary. Jeffrey Dahmer and those types were in the high 30's (out of 40), to give you an idea.

Heres the interesting thing

What if i deceived myself subconsciously in order to secure a lower score as to not affect my own ego with a psychopath label

Plus you know, interweb tests and whatnot arent exactly distinguished and reliable lol

How to spot a psychopath:

See who's posting in the OT and The Heavies

Off-topic is crawling with sickos, indeed. Heavies is just a bunch of idle no-brainers, though.

 

[Iroh]

It's in the eyes.

 

[Phlog]

The best technique has been shown to ask the person if they are a psychopath or not.

As accurate as any other and a little quicker.

No, those are generally sociopaths of varying degrees.

I have read that the Dark Triad (narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism) is highly correllated to people who find great success in those fields.

I am sure sociopaths are also well represented too.

 

[EJAXXX]

I want to know what the OP does for a living and why he posted this thread, or would that be an example of psychopathic behavior because I want to force him to answer publicly?

It was on the front page of yahoo news.

Aren't sociopaths often times a product of their upbringing and environment and have a hard time keeping a job and fitting in while a pcychopath is wired a certain way from birth and has a much easier time blending in?

psychopaths are often like chameleons...cunning and easily adaptable

a sociopath is like a bumbling gorilla...a Harambe if i may.. theyd prefer to stay to themselves

 

[UltimateMoving]

Yea, a sociopath is more like a victim of a psychopathic environment, its like theyre infected.


A psychopath is more of a pure thing, and they are sort entrapenuers in their world. Whereas the sociopath is damaged and has other mental problems, the psychopath is secure with themselves and are not conflicted about their environment.

persistent bed wetting past the age of five is a trait that many serial killers have

my brother had this problem and other symptoms (habitual liar, anger issues, sleep problems/narcolepsy). he has a weird sense of reality and is a conspiracy theorist. i know he's sick in the head but he plays the part and acts normal most of the time. put him in a social setting and for some reason, he would gravitate to the other weirdos. he's probably done some weird chit; i wouldnt be surprised if he gets admitted to a mental hospital
