When I've assessed children, adolescence, and adults for psychopathy, there are certain things I look for that suggest to me the person is genuinely psychopathic.

But I think it could be useful for people to know. The first one is that they tend to be antisocial across a whole range of domains.

Right? They've cheated on romantic partners. They've cheated in professional settings or maybe in school or in a sports setting.

Right? It's not just one thing or one domain; you see unethical and antisocial behavior across domains.

They, uh, tend to show signs they think they're better than other people. They tend to believe that problems in the world are always other people's faults—other people are dumb, other people are ignorant, other people are easily duped.

And finally, believing that everybody else is just like them underneath. So if somebody seems to believe that everybody is actually fundamentally selfish, if they think that's true of people in general, what they're really telling you is what they're like.
