âYou can do 50,000 crunches a day, but it will still only be toned muscles under your belly fat,â says Lauren Harris-Pincus, MS, RDN and owner of Nutrition Starring You. âThe truth is, unless the weight comes off, youâre not going to get a six-pack.â.
The word psychopathy is a joining of the Greek words psyche (ÏÏÏÎ®) soul and pathos (ÏÎ¬Î¸Î¿Ï) suffering, feeling. The first documented use is from 1847 in Germany as psychopatisch, and the noun psychopath has been traced to 1885.In medicine, patho-has a more specific meaning of disease (thus pathology has meant the study of disease since 1610, and psychopathology has meant the study of mental disorder in general since 1847.he definition of psychopathy has varied significantly throughout the history of the concept; different definitions continue to be used that are only partly overlapping and sometimes appear contradictory.
However, the first researcher to name the concept of psychopathy was Dr. Hervey Cleckley, who published a book titled The Mask of Sanity in 1941, Thomas writes. Cleckley noted that psychopathy was difficult to diagnose precisely because it presents itself without the obvious symptoms of mental disorder. Psychopaths and sociopaths are often a bit too rational. In her new book, Thomas says Cleckley's 16 behavioral characteristics hit home. Nowhere else have I recognized the sociopath inside me more than in Cleckley's clinical profiles, she writes. Here are Cleckley's 16 characteristics. Ask yourself if they apply to you.
