Take the test. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/psychopath-night

I scored 24%

"You are warm and empathic with a heightened awareness of social responsibility and a strong sense of conscience. You like to carefully weigh up the pros and cons of a situation before you act and are generally averse to taking risks. You are very much a ‘people person’ and dislike conflict. ‘Do unto others…’ are your watchwords. But, although you avoid hurting others, those residing at the higher end of the psychopathic spectrum might not be as considerate, so stay vigilant to avoid being hurt unnecessarily."

Es99 -- "The Wisdom of Psychopaths", by Kevin Dutton. I've read his book.
It does say that most psychopaths are not anti-social; rather, they are
much valued in society, e.g., world-famous surgeons, founders/CEO's of
companies, astronauts, etc. Examples of them were, also, given.

An fascinating and informative read.

Much as I'm sure you'd like us to believe that, I've known psychopaths and I don't think you are one.

[edit] I could be wrong because psychopaths really are wonderful at misrepresenting themselves, in the short term at least.

I used to think that psychopaths were like the movie serial killers until I discovered my ex was one. He certainly fits the bill, but as far as I am aware he is more likely to lie and claim he killed someone than to actually kill someone.

I find the subject so fascinating because I was so completely taken in by him. I just didn't see it coming. Even today I am not entirely sure I know much about him despite living together for over 10 years, because he lied so much about everything.

Aaah, & here's me thinking I'd score at least 95% :-)



Personally, I think the test was too short.

Your
score 67%

Though your conscience is in the right place you also have a pragmatic streak and generally aren’t afraid to do your own dirty work! You’re no shrinking violet - but no daredevil either. You generally have little trouble seeing things from another person’s perspective but, at the same time, are no pushover. ‘Everything in moderation – including moderation’ might sum up your approach to life.


<grin>



That statement is somewhat accurate. Imagine how they got all that from just those 11 questions + the final drop-downs....

I've Had To Take The M M P I to Gain Un-Escorted Access to A Nuclear Power Plant as A Contractor. I Passed and Got 'it'.

30 days During An Outage, Going Almost Anywhere In The Plant. OooohBa. Being A Two Unit Nuke Plant, The Other Unit was Spinning Away Making Power. OooooBa.

Not Good, but I guess We've Been 'Lucky' Real Psychopaths have Not Done What I've Done. heeeheeeheee.

The Point? If I Had Answered The Questions Truthfully, I Would Have 'Failed' The Test. I Checked The Answers I Knew would get me a 'Pass'.

Same with a Psychopath or Any Other Test. You Answer 'it', The Way you want 'it' to Tell You, Want You Want 'it' to Tell You.

Total B Frakkin' S.

Yep

Nobody in the arts, according to K. Kutton, can be a psychopath. Pretty
cut-and-dried. The rest are up for discussion.

You can play hardball with the best of them! You know what you want and are not afraid to go for it – even if it means bending the rules occasionally and putting a few noses out of joint on the way. Nothing fazes you. You are decisive, self-confident and pretty much up for anything. You are a ‘means-to-an-end’ person. For you, it’s not necessarily a matter of right or wrong, but of what gets the job done. ‘Bring it on’ is your mantra, but to help those around you keep their heads, you should learn some tricks to help you temper your self-satisfying tendencies...


Some truths there ;-)

My score was 39% and here is the analysis.
