Psychopathy (/saɪˈkɒpəθi/ from the Ancient Greek ψυχή "psyche", -soul, mind and πάθος, "pathos" -suffering, disease, condition) is a personality disorder characterized by a pervasive pattern of disregard for the feelings of others and often the rules of society. Psychopaths have a lack of empathy and remorse, and have very shallow emotions. They are generally regarded as callous, selfish, dishonest, arrogant, aggressive, impulsive, irresponsible, and hedonistic. Despite this, psychopaths are often superficially charming and can be highly adept at manipulation. There is at most only a weak association between psychopathy and high IQ.
There is no consensus about the symptom criteria for psychopathy, and no psychiatric or psychological organization has sanctioned a diagnosis of "psychopathy" itself.'
It should be emphasized that, although there are many behavioral similarities, the terms antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) and psychopathy are not synonymous. ASPD refers to broad behavioral patterns based on clinical observation, whereas psychopathy refers not only to specific behavioral patterns but measurable cognitive, emotional, and neuropsychological differences. In other words, psychopathy assesses character as well as behavior. In addition, ASPD is so broad in its scope that between 50-80% of male inmates qualify as meeting its criteria (Correction Services of Canada, 1990; Hare, 1998; Hare, Forth, & Strachan, 1992). In contrast, only 11-25% of male inmates meet the criteria for psychopathy (Hare, 1996). These data suggest that the construct of psychopathy may be a more precise indicator and a better predictor of violence than the more global construct of antisocial personality disorder.[citation needed]

Plot: Crescenzio, trentatreenne grasso e impacciato, verificatore per l'azienda napoletana del gas, ama in silenzio Giuliana, che lavora in un laboratorio elettronico con Beniamino, fratello di Crescenzio, fidanzato con Valeria. Il giovane è timido e riservato, a differenza del fratello, ed incontra una fauna variopinta di personaggi durante la lettura dei contatori, a casa della gente. Il padrone del laboratorio si mostra interessato a Giuliana, che evita come può le sue profferte. Ma gli insistenti tentativi dell'uomo innervosiscono la ragazza che, dopo un approccio più esplicito e volgare, corre da Beniamino e si sfoga con lui. Poco dopo è lo stesso Beniamino che tenta di sedurre Giuliana, che lo respinge. Una sera, il padrone stupra la giovane nel laboratorio deserto e lei, disperata, decide di lasciare Napoli. Crescenzio, che ha seguito tutto in silenzio e quasi con rassegnazione, non ne può più. Si reca al laboratorio e lascia aperto il gas, poi si allontana ed aspetta il padrone che torni. Quando questi arriva ed accende una lampadina, salta in aria con l'edificio.
