Antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) is prevalent in approximately 4% of the general population [1, 2], but is roughly ten times more common among the prison population [3]. Aside from the high association with crime, this serious disorder may have other long-reaching consequences for individuals, their families, and society, such as loss of employment, housing, or relationships, and substance abuse problems [1, 4, 5]. Although, based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) [6] criteria, an individual must be at least 18 years old to be diagnosed, the roots of ASPD are evident in childhood and adolescence.
