Abstract

In this paper psychopathy is analysed computationally by creating a temporal-causal network model. The network model was designed using knowledge from Cognitive and Social Neuroscience and simulates the internal neural circuit for moral decision making. Among others, empathy and fear are considered to affect the decision making. This model provides a basis for a virtual agent for simulation-based training or a support application for medical purposes.
