Antisocial Personality Disorder is unknown to the public even though it is a term used to refer to criminals. Common terms used to describe these criminals are "sociopaths" or "psychopaths", which in fact refers to antisocial personality disorder. The most common trait of this disorder is that people with this disorder lie and master the ability to manipulate. They don't seek professional help because they don't believe there is anything wrong with them. This disorder is associated with criminals because this disorder is selfish; People with antisocial personality disorder only care about their well-being and will do anything for their own betterment. Criminals diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder have no moral compass, making their behavior dangerous to others. Symptoms of antisocial personality disorder classified by the DMS IV include a lack of concern with society's rules and expectations. They do not respect the law or social norms, have difficulty holding down a job, or get in trouble for missing school. (Comer, 2011) They have repeated violations of the rights of others, often becoming physical and are irritable towards others. One of the most common symptoms is their pathological need to lie, they are self-centered and lying meets their need of the moment. Clinicians tend to describe the antisocial personality as having no moral center because of their complete disregard for others and manipulative ways. (Comer, 2011)The research community and clinical community do not fully agree with the DSM IV classification because it overemphasizes symptoms related to delinquent and criminal behavior and underemphasizes symptoms related to delinquent and criminal behavior and underestimates symptoms related to delinquent and criminal behavior. 1).
