What part of the brain do psychopaths lack?

The emotional part of the brain, called the amygdala. They can also not distinguish the difference between transgressions because they are missing the emotional piece of their brain.

What is a psychopath?

They are a person that has consistent wrong doings and have no remorse or guilt for their past actions.

What kind of transgression do psychopaths believe in?

Attributions do not know the difference between bad and blameworthy reasons, and this is because they do not look at the past history of the psychopath.
