TY - JOUR PY - 1998// TI - Emotion and aggression in the psychopathic personality JO - Aggression and violent behavior A1 - Patrick, Christopher J. A1 - Zempolich, KA SP - 303 EP - 338 VL - 3 IS - 4 N2 - This paper presents an integrative conceptual framework for understanding relationships between psychopathy and aggression, and reviews the extant relevant literature in relation to this framework. Issues pertaining to conceptualization and subtyping of aggression are reviewed with reference to contemporary emotion theory, and recent research on the emotional and temperamental underpinnings of criminal psychopathy is described. It is argued that different forms of aggression may be related to disparate facets of psychopathy, and that these relationships may be mediated by common dispositional factors. Methodological limitations of existing studies are identified, and suggestions for future research are offered.
