Psychosocial Distancing

Warning: This episode contains some graphic information and all season we will be talking about some less than savory topics.

Episode 107 of our book read/podcast covering major topics in various fields of psychology moves us into a continuation of the Year of Clickbait with FORENSIC PSYCHOLOGY/PSYCHOLOGY OF SERIAL KILLERS! This Fall we are going to discuss forensic psychology, serial killers, and the worst of human behavior. We are joined all season by Dr. Sarah Tracy, a counseling psychologist who teaches and engages with the study of serial killers.

In this episode we discuss the beginnings of THE DARK TRIAD and PSYCHOPATHY. We discuss the nature of psychopathy, sociopathy and the clinical definition of anti-social personality disorder. What is the difference?…is there one?...and more musings on the nature of the Dark Triad!
