Know about psycopath

Heri Adi Nugroho (172120041)


Psychopathy
• Psychopathy is a mental illness characterized
by actions that are egocentric and antisocial.
Psychopathy comes from the word psyche
which means soul and pathos which means
disease. The sufferer is also often referred to
as a psychopath or sociopath, because his
behavior is antisocial and detrimental to the
people closest to him.
• Psychopathy is not the same as crazy because a
psychopath is fully aware of his actions. Sufferers
are often called crazy people without mental
disorders. According to research about 1% of the
total world population has psychopathy. These
sufferers are difficult to detect because as many
as 80% more are wandering than those who are
in prison or in mental hospitals, sufferers are also
difficult to cure.
