"Robert Hare claims that the prevalence of psychopathic traits is higher in the business world than in the general population, reporting that while about 1% of the general population meet the clinical criteria for psychopathy, figures of around 3-4% have been cited for more senior positions in business."
This means that all of us have "met" psychopaths, and probably thought nothing of it. Also the question is loaded, because you can't determine someone is a psychopath just by meeting them, so the question is like bait for "Yes my ex, since they're my ex obviously there was something wrong with them, and this is how I imagine they behaved". (With apologies to anyone who actually WAS/IS involved with a psychopath; of course that must statistically happen).
Unless the respondent is psychologist/psychiatrist, it's unlikely they could respond correctly, and the answer is best found by Googling, but I guess it's interesting anyway ;)
