Hare Psychopathy Checklist

[Elfboy]

I scored 10

Hare's Checklist

1. GLIB and SUPERFICIAL CHARM -- the tendency to be smooth, engaging, charming, slick, and verbally facile. Psychopathic charm is not in the least shy, self-conscious, or afraid to say anything. A psychopath never gets tongue-tied. They have freed themselves from the social conventions about taking turns in talking, for example. >

2. GRANDIOSE SELF-WORTH -- a grossly inflated view of one's abilities and self-worth, self-assured, opinionated, cocky, a braggart. Psychopaths are arrogant people who believe they are superior human beings.

3. NEED FOR STIMULATION or PRONENESS TO BOREDOM -- an excessive need for novel, thrilling, and exciting stimulation; taking chances and doing things that are risky. Psychopaths often have a low self-discipline in carrying tasks through to completion because they get bored easily. They fail to work at the same job for any length of time, for example, or to finish tasks that they consider dull or routine.

4. PATHOLOGICAL LYING -- can be moderate or high; in moderate form, they will be shrewd, crafty, cunning, sly, and clever; in extreme form, they will be deceptive, deceitful, underhanded, unscrupulous, manipulative, and dishonest.

5. CONNING AND MANIPULATIVENESS- the use of deceit and deception to cheat, con, or defraud others for personal gain; distinguished from Item #4 in the degree to which exploitation and callous ruthlessness is present, as reflected in a lack of concern for the feelings and suffering of one's victims.

6. LACK OF REMORSE OR GUILT -- a lack of feelings or concern for the losses, pain, and suffering of victims; a tendency to be unconcerned, dispassionate, coldhearted, and unempathic. This item is usually demonstrated by a disdain for one's victims.

7. SHALLOW AFFECT -- emotional poverty or a limited range or depth of feelings; interpersonal coldness in spite of signs of open gregariousness.

8. CALLOUSNESS and LACK OF EMPATHY -- a lack of feelings toward people in general; cold, contemptuous, inconsiderate, and tactless.

9. PARASITIC LIFESTYLE -- an intentional, manipulative, selfish, and exploitative financial dependence on others as reflected in a lack of motivation, low self-discipline, and inability to begin or complete responsibilities.

10. POOR BEHAVIORAL CONTROLS -- expressions of irritability, annoyance, impatience, threats, aggression, and verbal abuse; inadequate control of anger and temper; acting hastily.

11. PROMISCUOUS SEXUAL BEHAVIOR -- a variety of brief, superficial relations, numerous affairs, and an indiscriminate selection of sexual partners; the maintenance of several relationships at the same time; a history of attempts to sexually coerce others into sexual activity or taking great pride at discussing sexual exploits or conquests.

12. EARLY BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS -- a variety of behaviors prior to age 13, including lying, theft, cheating, vandalism, bullying, sexual activity, fire-setting, glue-sniffing, alcohol use, and running away from home.

13. LACK OF REALISTIC, LONG-TERM GOALS -- an inability or persistent failure to develop and execute long-term plans and goals; a nomadic existence, aimless, lacking direction in life.

14. IMPULSIVITY -- the occurrence of behaviors that are unpremeditated and lack reflection or planning; inability to resist temptation, frustrations, and urges; a lack of deliberation without considering the consequences; foolhardy, rash, unpredictable, erratic, and reckless.

15. IRRESPONSIBILITY -- repeated failure to fulfill or honor obligations and commitments; such as not paying bills, defaulting on loans, performing sloppy work, being absent or late to work, failing to honor contractual agreements.

16. FAILURE TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR OWN ACTIONS -- a failure to accept responsibility for one's actions reflected in low conscientiousness, an absence of dutifulness, antagonistic manipulation, denial of responsibility, and an effort to manipulate others through this denial.

17. MANY SHORT-TERM MARITAL RELATIONSHIPS -- a lack of commitment to a long-term relationship reflected in inconsistent, undependable, and unreliable commitments in life, including marital.

18. JUVENILE DELINQUENCY -- behavior problems between the ages of 13-18; mostly behaviors that are crimes or clearly involve aspects of antagonism, exploitation, aggression, manipulation, or a callous, ruthless tough-mindedness.

19. REVOCATION OF CONDITION RELEASE -- a revocation of probation or other conditional release due to technical violations, such as carelessness, low deliberation, or failing to appear.

20. CRIMINAL VERSATILITY -- a diversity of types of criminal offenses, regardless if the person has been arrested or convicted for them; taking great pride at getting away with crimes.

[Qlip]

This doesn't look like the type of test you score yourself on.

I agree, I think 19-24 (Depending on how harsh I am on myself) seems a bit high, even for me...

But yeah, it kind of looks like something someone else would score you on, like your psychologist or something.

I don't know... well at least I didn't get a 40.

 

[King sns]

I got a 3....

 

[Rasofy]

Got 2 somewhat's.

 

[lunalum]

unless
- you deliberately picked that avatar to seem innocent
- you deliberately typed as an INFP 4 to seem innocent
- you deliberately chose that avatar to seem innocent
- you deliberately posted in this thread with the intention of looking worried about your score (which would disqualify you from being a sociopath or psychopath)

your score is probably much lower than 19-24

Hehe, INxP 6w5. (As of now anyways.)
Be careful about considering Shinji harmless. (You referred to the avatar twice for some reason.(Plus, you should have seen my Natsumi Kimiyoshi avatar ))
I'm not really worried about my score.
As long as I don't do anything stupid I could care less if my score was 0 or 40.
And odds are, that my score isn't too far off.
(Plus, my results are largely dependent on the state of mind I'm in. (They could be either higher or lower than I listed))
Which is actually part of the reason I don't think this is much of a self-evaluation test.

2... I can be as charming as I need to be, but I try to behave myself and I actually DO care about other people, even if I go around being blunt at them all of the time

 

[Rasofy]

Imo this is more like a recklessness checklist

 

[miss fortune]

Imo this is more like a recklessness checklist

or bad citizens checklist

 

[Elfboy]

Imo this is more like a recklessness checklist

to me it sounds like a criminal 7w8/8w7 Sx/So checklist

 

[miss fortune]

to me it sounds like a criminal 7w8/8w7 Sx/So checklist

but I'm a 7w8 with a criminal record and I only scored a 2!

 

[spiderfrommars]

I scored a 10, getting points for laziness and some sympathy problems. Not the recklessness, though.

 

[Owlesque]

I got 8, mostly from #6-8.

 

[Such Irony]

Got 2 somewhat's.

Same here
