So reading this article taken from the telegraph today...how do you score?

At heart, Hare’s test is simple: a list of 20 criteria, each given a score of 0 (if it doesn’t apply to the person), 1 (if it partially applies) or 2 (if it fully applies). The list in full is: glibness and superficial charm, grandiose sense of self-worth, pathological lying, cunning/manipulative, lack of remorse, emotional shallowness, callousness and lack of empathy, unwillingness to accept responsibility for actions, a tendency to boredom, a parasitic lifestyle, a lack of realistic long-term goals, impulsivity, irresponsibility, lack of behavioural control, behavioural problems in early life, juvenile delinquency, criminal versatility, a history of “revocation of conditional release” (ie broken parole), multiple marriages, and promiscuous sexual behaviour. A pure, prototypical psychopath would score 40. A score of 30 or more qualifies for a diagnosis of psychopathy. Hare says: “A friend of mine, a psychiatrist, once said: ‘Bob, when I meet someone who scores 35 or 36, I know these people really are different.’ The ones we consider to be alien are the ones at the upper end.”

I always knew my ex was an alien. Psychopath describes him well, too.

Jon Ronson wrote a book called The Psychopath Test:

The worrying thing is he ends up agreeing with Scientology.

Carry on.

•+• Silicon valley. •+•

glibness and superficial charm, 0 and people with this creep me out.

grandiose sense of self-worth, 1

pathological lying, 0

cunning/manipulative, 1 maybe 2

lack of remorse, 2

emotional shallowness, 0

callousness and lack of empathy, 0

unwillingness to accept responsibility for actions, 0

a tendency to boredom, 0

a parasitic lifestyle, 0

a lack of realistic long-term goals, 1

impulsivity, 2

irresponsibility, 0

lack of behavioural control, 1

behavioural problems in early life, 1

juvenile delinquency, 1

criminal versatility, 0

a history of “revocation of conditional release” (ie broken parole), 0

multiple marriages, 0

and promiscuous sexual behaviour. 2

13 out of whatever.

been brought up by someone who is likely a sociopath/narcissist so did inherit some traits because of him, but my sense of empathy curtails those traits.

i did read up about the best way to treat psychopaths/sociopaths is to change their way of thinking so that good behaviour benefits them. everything revolves around themselves and their own needs so this makes sense.

Just quickly did the test and scored 2. Just goes to show, maybe I'm a sub conscious psychopath.
