Is there a brain scan that can reveal sociopathy/psychopathy?


Posts: 97

I saw a book on Amazon called the Psychopath Within. A neurologist looks at a brain scan and recognizes it to be one of a psychopath, then realizes it's his own. This is making me wonder if such a brain scan is really available so I can have one done of my brain. The tests where you answer questions are so subjective and so easy to manipulate, I would like to see some hard evidence. Anyone know anything about this?

 May I ask a semi-serious question?

 

Does everyone on this forum have the intelligence level of pre-schoolers?

With the right professionals, that is done using MRI scans. We see it being done on Sam Valknin in that documentary, forgot what it's called. Google it up.

The neuroanatomical and neurophysiological differences between non-psychopathic and psychopathic control subjects can be discerned correspondingly, using both the positron emission tomography and the functional magnetic resonance imaging.

What really constitutes true psychopathy is still up for debate.

 It is actually possible to do a brain scan on empathy, but not sociopathy you wee 'tard.

That's what I told myself.

I'm still laughing my ass off.
