Overview
Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD) is a mental health condition characterized by a persistent pattern of disregard for the rights of others, as well as a tendency towards impulsive, irresponsible, and sometimes criminal behavior. The exact cause of ASPD is not known, but it is believed to result from a combination of genetic, environmental, and neurological factors. Diagnosis of ASPD is typically made by a mental health professional based on a clinical evaluation and may involve a review of the individual's personal and medical history, as well as a psychological assessment.
