I think that I would want to know if my child showed signs of psychopathy. The brain is adaptable and I would hope that with this knowledge as a parent I would be able to have my child go through interventions and therapies to help the brain change and adapt. I would also like to know so that when my child's behaviors became out of control and aggressive I would know what might be coming next and place the child in an appropriate setting. I also think that there is still some much unknown about the brain that there might be a treatment in the future to change the areas of the brain that seem to dictate psychopathy. Some also believe that CEO of large corporations might show some signs of psychopathy.
As for myself i would like to know. In fact the other day while doing some extra research on this topic i took this test http://personality-testing.info/tests/LSRP.php . I am not a psychopath by the way.
I feel like it would be interesting to really see if the brain could adapt fast enough for the change to happen before the child became a psychopath. I would like to have at least a little idea to why my child would be more aggressive than the norm, and with this information it could only really help. I was also intrigued with the CEO comment I think that would make some sense for some CEO's in their position. Are they already a psychopath, or did the job just make them that way with all the stress they have to go through?? Good to know your not a psychopath by the way!
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting this psychopath test! I scored a 2.1, which I think is a good score to get compared to a 5. Your CEO question interests me and Gabrielle's questions added to my curiosity. Does working in big corporations drive these CEO's mad?
