Menschen mit psychopathischen Merkmalen mangelt es nicht an Angst – sie genießen sie tatsächlich. Die Ergebnisse stützen die aufkommende Fear-Genieß-Hypothese, die besagt, dass Psychopathie nicht durch das Fehlen von Angst, sondern durch eine atypische emotionale Interpretation angstbedingter Erregung gekennzeichnet ist.

So does this mean my wife is a psychopath because she loves horror and murder documentaries?

woah

its interesting

but heres the thing

Dopamine, the pleasure hormone, is released in many moments of your life, bad and good, because dopamine also regulates memory creation and neural growth.

So the intepretation that it has to do with „interpretation“ is actually very interesting was to put it.

For example, i have a lot of pleasure, seeing my wife in pleasure, the psychopathic interpretation seems almost similar but with someone of the pieces jumbled up.

The thing is, pleasure from seeing fear should be presented as merely a psychopathic trait, this trait is very common for many people but in different scenarios.

Just take football for example, which man or woman, did not take a small instance of pleasure, in the suffering of the fanbase of the losing team?

The mechanism is the same, the consequences are smaller, and the idea is more socially acceptable.
