"Antisocial Personality
People with an antisocial personality (previously called psychopathic or sociopathic personality), most of whom are male, show callous disregard for the rights and feelings of others. They exploit others for material gain or personal gratification (unlike narcissistic people who think they are better than others). Characteristically, such people act out their conflicts impulsively and irresponsibly. They tolerate frustration poorly, and sometimes they are hostile and violent. Despite the problems or harm they cause others by their anti-social behaviors, they typically don’t feel remorse or guilt. Rather, they glibly rationalize their behavior or blame it on others. Dishonesty and deceit permeate their relationships. Frustration and punishment rarely cause them to modify their behaviors." Merck Manual of Medical Information, Home Edition, page 427.
