Antisocial Disorder • One of the most diagnosed condition among the personality disorders. There is a pervasive pattern of disregard for and violation of three or more of the following: • Failure to conform to social norms with respect to lawful behaviors as indicated by repeatedly performing acts that are grounds for arrest • Deceitfulness, as indicated by repeated lying, use of aliases, or conning others for personal profit or pleasure • Impulsivity or failure to plan ahead • Irritability and aggressiveness, as indicated by physical fights or assaults • Reckless disregard for safety of self or others • Consistent irresponsibility as indicated by repeated failure to sustain consistent work or behavior or honor financial obligations • Lack of remorse, as indicated by being indifferent to or rationalizing having hurt, mistreated, or stolen from another
Causes • Inherited tendencies, or genes. These are aspects of a person's personality passed on by parents, such as shyness or having a happy outlook. This is sometimes called temperament. It's the "nature" part of the nature vs. nurture debate. • Environment, or life situations. This is the surroundings a person grows up in, events that occurred, and relationships with family members and others. It includes such things as the type of parenting a person experienced, whether loving or abusive. This is the "nurture" part of the nature vs. nurture debate. • Personality disorders are thought to be caused by a combination of these genetic and environmental influences. Some people may have a genetic vulnerability to developing antisocial personality disorder — and life situations may trigger its actual development.
Treatment • Antisocial personality disorder is notoriously difficult to treat. People with this disorder may not even want treatment or think they need treatment. But because antisocial personality disorder is essentially a way of being, rather than a curable condition, affected people are likely to need close, long-term care and follow-up.
Psychopathy • Is a subset of antisocial-personality disorder • Psychopathy is not mentioned as it’s own disorder in the DSM-IV • Is more specific than antisocial personality disorder, and a psychopath is not the same as an antisocial personality. Antisocial personalities may or may not be psychopathic • The antisocial personality is primarily a problem involving a failure to respect the right of individuals, the law and rules of society. Psychopathy involves poor emotional intelligence, the lack of conscience, and an inability to feel attached to people except in terms of their value as a source of stimulation or new possessions
