Sociopath Test: Do I Have Antisocial Personality Disorder!

Sociopath Test: am i a sociopath

Definition of narcissistic sociopath

“Sociopath” is a misused term. What you probably want to ask is, “does this person have a narcissistic personality disorder?”.

Narcissistic personality disorder (NDP) can include such traits as an inflated sense of importance, an obsession with success and power, a tendency to exploit others, and an inability to feel empathy.

A sociopath in psychology refers to someone who has an antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). Both NPD and ASPD come under the same ‘cluster’ of personality disorders. But those with antisocial behavior disorder have complete disregard for regulations and the law, don’t follow social norms, tend to be hostile and aggressive, and therefore rarely hold down a job.

So it’s unlikely to find a clinical sociopath in a position of power in a company. But yes, you will find people with narcissistic personality disorder in positions of power.

The truth about narcissistic personality disorder is that only around 1% of the population is thought to actually have it.
