Impulsivity in antisocial personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder in prison population
Recent empirical research has examined the relationship between impulsivity and a personality disorder diagnosis within the prison population. As such, results suggest that ASPD and OCPD groups can commit the same crimes (against human and against objects), although they differ in terms of impulsivity, sensation seeking, and positive urgency. These differences are reflected in the finding that OCPD groups scored lower while ASPD groups scored higher on these dimensions.
