Preston McCafee’s website summarizes some of the common features in descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths: “Glibness and Superficial Charm, Manipulative and Conning, Grandiose Sense of Self (Feels entitled to certain things as “their right”), Pathological Lying, Lack of Remorse, Need for Stimulation (Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.), Callousness/Lack of Empathy (Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others’ feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.), Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature (Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.), Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity, Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility.”
