psychopath

y, so that could mean some of you might find out today if you're one in a hundred. We are sure you will tell us how it went in the end. We won't go over everything related to the genesis of psychopathy here, but we will tell you that there is something called the Psychopathy Checklist. Mental health professionals could use

this

test

, a test for psychopathy. That's what we'll use today as the basis for our questions.

We must tell you not to worry if you don't like the score you get, because to really understand how your mind works you have to consult with a professional. This is not intended to support a diagnosis and is only a test. We'll tell you what the scores mean at the end. You can score the test as follows. 0 =

this

does not apply to me at all. 1 = this applies to me to some extent. 2 = this definitely applies to me. Keep track of your score. You may have to write the numbers or write them down. 1. Do you display a simplistic and superficial charm?

If you don't know what simplistic means, it could be described as being able to speak fluently but not being sincere when you do it. You can charm people, but you're a bit fake. So, again, if this is completely true for you, give

yourself

a 2. If it's a little bit true, you'll get a one, and if it's not true at all, you'll get a zero. Write that down. 2. Do you have a great estimate of

yourself

? You know, do you have a very high opinion of yourself, but others might think you have too high an opinion? You don't care, you know you are superior to them. 3.

Do you have a constant need for stimulation? Do you get bored very easily? 4. Are you a pathological liar? Okay, we all tell lies, more lies than we think we tell, but are you living in some kind of world of lies? Is it even hard to tell when you're not lying, you're lying that much? That is why the word “pathological” is used, in relation to the disease. 5. Are you cunning and manipulative? Do you know deep down that you are a very cunning person who can easily manipulate others to get what you want? Are you even proud that you can excel at this? 6.

Do you lack remorse or guilt? So you do bad things and for some reason you never feel bad about it. You move on, because hey, why burden yourself with meaningless guilt? 7. Do you have a surface effect? We assume you don't know what that means. In a way it means when your emotional reactions to things are superficial. They are usually short-lived or there seems to be a reduction in your emotional response to certain actions or events. You may feel little or nothing when the people around you are drowning in emotions. 8. Are you insensitive and lack empathy? This is similar but not the same.

Imagine when people see something that should make them sad, but you don't feel anything at all. You don't feel sorry for the dying animal in the wildlife documentary; You seem fine when you hear someone's bad news. 9. Do you have a parasitic lifestyle? Do you live off of others and don't feel guilty about it? 10. Do you have poor behavioral controls? Do you find it difficult to contain yourself? Do you have little self-control? 11. Are you sexually promiscuous? This simply means that you sleep with someone. Do you have many intimate partners or one-night stands? 12. Did he show early behavioral problems?

Were you the out of control child? 13. Do you lack realistic long-term goals? That's self-explanatory, but some experts say that psychopaths can be goalless and then simply say things like, I want to rule the world or become an astronaut, but they haven't

take

n any steps to achieve that. 14. Are you too impulsive? Do actions occur too frequently without much thought to the process? 15. Are you irresponsible? 16. Do you not accept responsibility for your own actions? You know you made a mis

take

, but you still won't be responsible for your actions. 17. Have you had many short-term marital relationships? Many of our viewers may not have been married, but their relationships may never seem to last long. 18.

Do you have a history of juvenile delinquency? This is more than tantrums as a child. It means you got into more serious trouble when you were younger. 19. Have you experienced a parole revocation? This won't mean much to many of you because it means that a person has been released from jail on the condition that he doesn't commit another crime, but he does. To make it work for you, are you a repeat offender in terms of doing the same things wrong over and over again? Do you still get in trouble even after you said you wouldn't do that again? 20.

Do you show criminal versatility? Does crime come easy to you? Are you good in many ways? Do you have a knack for criminal enterprises, even small transgressions like cheating or stealing small things? So how did you get it? If you scored a zero, you have absolutely no psychopath in you, but it's unlikely that many people will score a zero. However, many people score less than six, which could be called neurotypical or normal. On the other hand, if you got a score of 40 you could be what is called a prototypical psychopath, a complete psychopath. We're told that a score above 30 puts you in the psychopathic camp, but non-psychopathic people who may have some type of antisocial personality disorder may score between 16 and 22.

They may also have a criminal record. As we said, this is not a diagnostic test and should not be taken too seriously. We leave the real tests to the professionals.
