Overigens als je doordenkt begrijp je ook hoe ongelooflijk
gevaarlijk (slimme) psychopaten zijn.<br>
<br>

"Hij onderzoekt de griezelige persoonlijkheidsstoornis al dertig
jaar en schat het aantal psychopaten op 1 procent van de bevolking.
En zet u schrap: in de bedrijfswereld ligt dat percentage nog vier
keer hoger."<br>

Overigens heeft psychopatie veel kenmerken van het egotisme
(narcisme) <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egotism">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egotism</a><br>
"Egotism is closely related to "loving one's self" or <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissism" title="Narcissism">narcissism</a>
- indeed some would say “by egotism we may envisage a kind of
socialized narcissism”.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a

Egotists have a strong tendency to talk about themselves in a
self-promoting fashion, and they may well be arrogant and boastful
with a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandiosity"
title="Grandiosity">grandiose</a> sense of their own importance.<sup
id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egotism#cite_note-4"><span>[</span>4<span>]</span></a></sup>
Their inability to recognise the accomplishments of others<sup
id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egotism#cite_note-5"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></a></sup>
leaves them profoundly self-promoting; while sensitivity to
criticism may lead on the egotist's part to <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_rage_and_narcissistic_injury"
title="Narcissistic rage and narcissistic injury">narcissistic
rage</a> at a sense of insult.<sup id="cite_ref-6"

<p>Looked at differently, the <a

of egotism describes a person who <a

title="Action (philosophy)">acts</a> to gain <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Values" title="Values"
class="mw-redirect">values</a> in an amount excessively greater
than that which he or she gives to others. Egotism may be
fulfilled by exploiting the <a

<p>Egotism differs from both <a

- or acting to gain <i>fewer</i> values than are being given– and
from <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/egoism" class="extiw"
title="wikt:egoism">egoism</a>, the unremitting pursuit of one's
own self-interest. Various forms of "empirical egoism" can be
consistent with egotism, but do not necessitate having an inflated
sense of self.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a
