Which term best describes a condition where individuals fail to conform to social norms, disregard rights of others, and show lack of remorse?
Correct Answer:
Antisocial Disorder
Explanation:
Antisocial personality disorder describes a pervasive pattern of disregard for the rights of others and a lack of remorse, along with violating social norms. The described behavior—consistently failing to conform to norms, ignoring others’ rights, and showing little or no remorse—matches this pattern in adults and often begins in childhood or adolescence with conduct problems that persist into adulthood. This is different from anxiety-related conditions or PTSD, whose core features involve fear, trauma responses, or hyperarousal rather than a repeated pattern of harming others without remorse.
