PSYCHOPATH
Question 1:
Psychopathy is described as a psychological disorder which includes a cluster of
interpersonal, effective and lifestyle and antisocial trait. As discussed by Hare and Neumann
(2009), the common trait of psychopathy is deceptive, superficial, manipulative, lack of
empathy, shallow, lack of guilt and unable to create a strong bond with others. The psychopath
label carries a considerable stigma and possible social and legal consequences for individuals.
Usually, psychopathy is associated with different criminal offense which has serious legal
consequences. However, despite the presence of the negative traits, there are certain advantages
of strong psychopathic trait highlighted in the literature. One of the advantages of the strong
psychopathic trait is that since these traits are quite evident, identification of these traits helps to
reduce the crime rates in society. The strong psychopathic traits enable community health
professionals to identify the traits through thorough assessment and provide support and
responsive care for promoting wellbeing.
As discussed by Galang et al. (2016), psychopaths are described as highly intelligent,
successful and high-functioning individuals with no criminal acts and variation in the integration
in the society. Because of the high functioning trait, these individuals are able to establish their
position in the business or other reputed organizations (Butler.et al., 2003). The advantage of
high intelligence is that it enabled the individuals with a strong psychopathic trait to take the
faster decision, solve the problem faster comported to others. Inability to create bonds with
others would help individuals to gain success in the managerial positions and established as the
transactional leader. Another study suggested that psychopathic trait have evolutionary
advantages which enable psychopath to be reproductive compared to the normal human being
