Abstract

Individuals with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) struggle with social cognition (SC) and empathy. As such, this research investigates the relationship between SC and ASPD behaviors, and whether empathy moderates that relationship. Behavioral SC measures were unrelated to ASPD behaviors and were not moderated by self-reported empathy.
