While the DSM does not recognize Psychopathy as a separate condition from ASPD, the DSM is often criticized for failing to differentiate the two. Psychologists and researchers in the field frequently differentiate the two in thier treatment plans and research. When I took Abnormal Psychology in college, they were taught as two seperate things. The DSM is written for insurance classification and rarely goes into an accurate depth of classifying psychological disorders. | |

| Mar 2, 2020 at 16:46 | comment | added | Nosajimiki | @Muuski I think you mean psychopaths. Sociopaths tend to be erratic and clearly unstable whereas psychopaths are emotionless and make all decisions in a calculated manor. Psychopaths would certainly excel under this system, but that may not be a bad thing. Psychopaths are heavily motivated by power, meaning maintaining office will be of paramount concern to them. In modern politics, psychopaths know that thier public persona and actions in office are independent variables. If you make the vote directly dependant on actions in office, then they will be more inclined to follow thier platform | |
