The authors examined the interrelationships and the independent contributions of three major constructs associated with male criminal violence (neurodevelopmental insults, antisocial parenting, and psychopathy) using structural equation modeling. Subjects were 868 violent offenders assessed or treated at a maximum security psychiatric hospital. Results indicated that neurodevelopmental insults and psychopathy are not interrelated but are both directly and independently related to criminal violence, and antisocial parenting is related to both neurodevelopmental insults and psychopathy but has no direct relationship to criminal violence. These results are not consistent with a view of psychopathy as a disorder but are consistent with the view of psychopathy as an evolved life history strategy. Criminal violence has at least two separate developmental pathways originating very early in life, one involving neurodevelopmental damage and one involving psychopathy.
