Diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder in two prison populations
Abstract
The author presents data on the incidence and reliability of the DSM-III diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder in 246 male inmates of two prisons, comparing this diagnosis with assessment procedures that have proven useful in the study of psychopathy. He found good agreement between the diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder and assessments of psychopathy, although DSM-III did not readily identify individuals who fit the classic picture of psychopathy but avoided early contact with the judicial system. Nevertheless, DSM-III may be useful for differential diagnosis in criminal populations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
