The most disturbing part of this video was the glee and enthusiasm in the voice of the presenter as she described animal experiments involving starvation, mental torture and invasive brain surgery. Maybe this was meant as a demonstration of what zero empathy looks like in a person.

Really wanna watch this entire talk. But had to mention, after just popping in listening for 3 secs. The idea that psychopaths might feel a sense of loyalty towards e.g. family, sounds widely inaccurate to me after being involved with multiple psychopaths intimately. The core of psychopathy is being loyal to one person only in the end of the day, and that is themselves. In my experience they don't have the ability to even conceptualize the idea of loyalty for anyone other then themselves. What may look as loyalty to neuro-typical individuals is probably most often convenience, they would even throw their own kids before the bus if thats more "convenient" though. No loyalty, that defines psychopathy.

One of the best panels. This topic is soooo fascinating and so much more complex than what we see in the movies.

I love listening to Bryan talk. He is so eloquent and he explains things so well.

Bryan's questions are just fantastic. I also love how science-based this is, this is about as far way from Meyer's-Briggs/Jungian/Freudian nonsense as you can get. This is really good science (although in this case science is the bearer of a lot of bad news).

Oh I'm so glad they uploaded it !!!

Not to mention... I wanted to ask if Jon Ronson's hypothesis that the more wealth and power a person accrues under capitalism, the more likely they are to have an increased number of psychopathic traits....

the lower income someone is during childhood the higher likelihood they show psychopathic traits but the higher someone is on the boardroom the higher the likelihood they show psychopathic traits

Illuminating stuff.

Adaptive behaviour using what you have available in a Universe that is a time delayed Mirror Test of probability integration, (academic avoidance of Actuality), self defence against your approximate mirror image, (we are individually unique in uniqueness), means that if it is a matter of survival in continuity, ie collective morality, eliminating the risk to Society in Common is one reason for pre-emptive "counter attack". In other words, "every case is different" and probable solutions are another aspect of "Precision is not Accuracy". (Invidious choices)

So, question to any psycopath out there, if you can't feel some emotions, have you ever accidentally acted in a way to avoid consequences for feeling an emotion, for example, feeling sad and accidentally finding a different emotion like regret Example not being sad for a situation because you don't like people helping you and accidentally faking regret because you worded it wrong? How often do you find new emotions and are there emotions you noticed any that doesn't have a word associated with it?

If i laughed at a "total kodak moment", is that bad? 😂

It really quite simple! All animals are comprised of a wide variety of species. Dogs (collies vs Rottweilers), birds (parrots vs raptors), fish (sharks vs dolphins). Those species are DIFFERENT GENETICALLY (from birth). Well humans also are comprised of genetically different species . .empaths vs psychopaths. IT’S that simple and that complex!

I'm a little confused about the boy killer as the example of a psychopath because his enthusiastic taunting was definitely a display of emotional interest. He was clearly hoping to get an emotional reaction out of his victims' families and he was excited for it. That isn't someone with deadened emotions, and psychopathy isn't defined by violence. He looks more like a narcissist which would also make sense considering his demographic. His violence was likely regarding his status insecurity rather than for fun. Most of his victims were not white.

Psychopathy is in no way a disorder of general unemotionality.

Identify/spot them yourself (but don't tell them that, never tell them) and then avoid/leave. (Cut all contact and drop them like an evil stepmother you never wanna see ever again. Never ever) That is the ONLY way. You cannot "win" against a psychopath because they do not care. They do not share either. Psychopaths only use people to fill their own selfish needs. One more thing? If you do try to stay, which I have, they will make it so you never get your needs met. Emotional, physical, etc, and you will leave anyways OR be dumped. "You can't have it! You don't matter! 😝 Ha HA ha HA ha! Hahahahaha!😂😂😂"

I forgot to add that that is a romantic partner/friend/family member. (Whichever) For a psychopathic boss, document, document, document. Heck, even for the psychopathic spouse too. You want physical proof. Texts, emails, etc. If the psychopath leaves you alone though, then it is best to leave. Some people have left their jobs because of a bad boss. It depends on your situation/decision.

If I had made it to the live Q&A I wanted to ask if psychopathy manifests differently between cis male and female people due to social pressures on female presenting people to be more "service" oriented.

Not really, one thing about psychopaths compared to most other psychiatric disorders is that their behavior is incredibly stable, in other words they don't really react to any sort of socialization.

Primary Psychopathy is genetic, “born bad” as they say. Secondary Psychopathy is a trauma response. Primary Psychopaths don’t experience fear(allegedly) while Secondary Psychopaths experience significant anxiety levels. Here’s my take on it. Primary Psychopaths experience fear and anxiety, they merely have the power to suppress and control it in distressing situations. Secondary Psychopaths are significantly more impulsive and emotional, therefore.. control over emotions, including anxiety, is lacking.

Stop calling the Hare PCL-R a test like it's a "pop quiz". It's an assessment following an extensive personal interview of two hours or more with even more time spent corroborating the data.
