On behavior of psychopaths under war conditions

By means of sequential application of a taxonomic neural network, in a random sample of 1,730 male respondents aged from 18 to 50 years described as having emotional responding under war conditions typical of psychopaths, a set of 543 (31.4%) respondents was identified as a tax on of subjects with psychopathic emotional reaction pattern predominantly determined by the reaction of anger.161 (9.3%) of them participated in the war provoked by ΝΑΤΟ intervention. With respect to psychological characteristics of psychopaths in general, and especially their response characteristics in frustrating situations, it has been concluded that there is a likelihood, significantly different from zero, that some of them will do acts contrary to the laws and customs of war because, in situations characteristic of civil war, it is objectively impossible to control their behavior.
