The predominant traits of psychopathy differ between cultures, experts claim.

When the term “psychopath” is mentioned, a number of famous fictional figures spring to mind - Patrick Bateman, Freddy Krueger and Dexter Morgan to name a few.

While many may assume that the main attributes of a psychopath’s personality would be universal, new research has discovered that they do seem to vary across different cultures.

A team of researchers led by Bruno Verschuere, associate professor of forensic psychology at the University of Amsterdam, carried out a study of 7,450 individuals exhibiting psychopathic characteristics in the US and the Netherlands.
