Antisocial personality disorder as 'mask of insanity'

Abstract

Contemporary studies show great interest in antisocial personality disorder because of its important theoretical findings in field of criminal psychology as well as improvement measurements of prevention. Thus, curiosities of this topic are limited on investigation of criminal population or those who intentionally break social rules. In this article, main focus is put on population who lives in margins of society and who has relatively normal functioning in world among us.

Savremena istraživanja pokazuju značajno zanimanje za antisocijalni poremećaj ličnosti upravo zbog važnih teorijskih nalaza u oblasti psihologije kriminala, ali i zbog unapređenja preventivnih intervencija. Ipak, radoznalost za ovu temu ograničena je istraživanjima kriminalne populacije ili onima koji svesno krše društvene norme ponašanja. U ovom članku, primarni fokus je na onim osobama koje žive na margini društva i relativno dobro funkcionišu u svetu oko nas.
