Performance of Male Psychopaths Following Conditional Release from Prison.
Hart, Stephen D.; And Others
Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v56 n2 p227-32 Apr 1988
Administered Psychopathy Checklist (PCL) to criminals being released from prison on parole or mandatory supervision, then examined official parole supervision files for postrelease behavior. Violation of release conditions, suspensions, and presentation of supervisory problems were directly proportional, and the probability of subjects remaining out of prison for one year was inversely proportional to their PCL scores.
