Can you develop psychopathy or do you have it all your life?
Caito789
Yes and no. Usually you have to be born with psychopathy; but if you get a tumor or severe enough brain damage in your pre-frontal cortex--where scientists have found faulty wiring in psychopaths--you might be able to experience some symptons of psychopathy. You see the frontal lobe plays a big part in the personality of the person, so getting severe blow to the forehead can cause personality change. I would also like to add that I may have gotten the sections of the brain wrong, but i got the general idea. Don't hold it against me.
