Passage 3 (Questions 10 - 13)Antisocial personality disorder is a chronic mental condition in which a person's ways of thinking, perceiving situations, and relating to their peers are dysfunctional and destructive. People with antisocial personality disorder have no regard for right and wrong and often disregard the rights, wishes, and feelings of others. Several traits necessary to be diagnosed with antisocial personality disorder have been identified. A sample list of these traits is shown below.* Superficial charm (smooth-talking, engaging, and slick)* Greatly inflated idea of one's abilities and self-esteem and a sense of superiority* Pathological lying* Manipulative (uses deceit to cheat others for personal gain)* Lack of remorse or guilt* Limited range or depth of feelings* Callous/lack of empathy* Failure to accept responsibility for own actionsDespite their antisocial behavior, many criminals do not fit the description of antisocial personality disorder. The disorder has both biological and psychological roots. No single gene codes for such complex behavior, but some studies have detected early signs of antisocial behavior. Figure 1 shows the results of an experiment performed to measure levels of the hormone adrenaline in two groups of boys at age 15. Figure 1 Levels of adrenaline measured in two groups of boysIn both stressful and non-stressful situations, those who had acquired a juvenile criminal record as 12-15 year olds showed comparatively low arousal. Genetics alone cannot tell the whole story. Relative to 1955, the average American in 2005 was twice as likely to be murdered, four times as likely to be robbed, and five times more likely to be assaulted. Yet, the human gene pool had hardly changed. Question 11It is found that some people who suffer from antisocial personality disorder had trouble with speech comprehension as children.
