Article: Study finds psychopaths have below-average intelligence
I said this long ago, on this blog, that the industry hype about sociopaths and psychopaths having high intelligence was the opposite of the truth, and a product of those who are making such assessments being of sociopathic disposition, themselves - and that it's because they regard peer-praise and the ability to manipulate situations to their personal benefit so highly, that they consider those things to be the picture of intelligence, to them.
I also said that doctor, and scientist, are two of the foremost professions populated by sociopaths / psychopaths - people who have been raised with a discipline-type which taught them 'this determination is good' vs 'this determination is bad,' putting up many roadblocks to considering within their mind and brains, and resulting in them lots of surplus dopamine to make them very functional, self-confident, and scholastically successful, while ultimately being ineffective for much beyond sucking up to the popular themes of the day, and looking for ways they can fit themselves into granfalloons.
That type of disciplining also conditioned their personalities to perceive the experience of dopamine being freed up within their brains due to concluding the work that is considering (which is the work of a brain for which dopamine is required) as though it were "reward" for fulfilling various determinations, since it replenishes in availability each time they cause the desisting of considering. This disposition renders them very non-appreciative and of the truth concerning the states of malady that come about explicitly because of dopamine-deficiency, and it makes them non-empathetic to the great suffering that their doctrine of fiction is responsible for causing for other people. Their mistaken perception results in them feeling justified in exploiting the dopamine-deficiency-caused states of suffering of others for the sake of their own personal self-gratification, which they justify to themselves as "reward" for conformity to peer-approved ideology.
[Side discussion]
That type of disciplining also conditioned their personalities to perceive the experience of the dopamine that freed up within their brains upon their conforming to a peer-approved determination (which ended some considering, freeing up the dopamine being used for that considering) as though it were "reward" for obeying that peer-approved directive. Of course, the actual state of things is that that perception of their was only a symptom of their enormous stupidity, which itself was a product of their being taught 'this is good' vs 'this is bad,' which prevented their own considering of matters within their mind and brain - which would have developed the consideration structure that is smarts.
That's why there is so much drug-related research that concludes things which is not supported by any of the evidence looked at in the study: The writer A) can't understand any of what they're looking at, and so they default to assuming it means a determination about how the substance is negative for health, because they don't know how to consider, and B) conforming to the peer-approved granfalloon makes them feel good, because it avoids considering, freeing up dopamine that was allocated towards figuring something out when they first looked at the matter.
In effect, people who are "reward"-motivated are all junkies, only looking to acquire their next fix as soon as possible, by way of falsifying whatever they're working on. That's why medical science hasn't moved one inch on the matters of dopamine and mental health in a century, and why I produced both those matters' complete understanding, from start to finish, within one year. The professions of doctor and scientist are filled with junkies who are only there for the high of feeling as though they're conforming to the peer-approved granfalloon, and whose only guidance in what they do is the appearance of propriety and authority of their peers, and who work against people who literally need dopamine to be healthy, well, and productive, just so that those doctor and scientist junkies can get their dopamine fixes by conforming to their peers' opposition of those people's lives.
I tell you the truth: The memory of those who work out of "reward" and to prevent acceptance of the truth of human physiological health will be like that given for Nazi guards who stood outside concentration camps, feeling strong, proud, and justified for upholding the murderous and self-aggrandizing granfalloon of their day. And those who call dopamine "reward" will be like early-USA slave-owners, who rationalized their positions of manipulated circumstance in society by framing Africa-Americans as sub-humans and animals, whose greatest possible semblance of civility and contribution to society was under the ownership and whip of their white owners. Those slave-owners, too, used the very same rationalization as "reward" (their being white vs others being black) to justify to themselves their disposition and ability to self-benefit in society, at the expense of those on the under side of their determination - and at the expense of the truth, itself.
The conforming Nazi guard and slave-owners of yesterday are the same people who call themselves doctors and scientists today, serving their institutions' fictions of ideological and capitalistic preference. The same evil found another form, in doctors and scientists, but it is the same evil.
[Back to the main topic]
I said that a psychopath / sociopath is someone whose mind lacks considerations, which are developed through the act of considering, which is the work of a brain that requires dopamine to accomplish. And so, since sociopaths / psychopaths lack the willingness to do the work that requires dopamine to complete, they end up having a lot of surplus dopamine, which is what produces all cognitive clarity and work-potential for a brain, and so those who have lots of it due to not using it for the work of considering have lots to apply to the few considerations that they do have, and make them very proficient in utilizing the few and basic considerations that they do possess.
In other words, due to their large dopamine availabilities (due to being non-considering, but conforming to determinations), sociopaths are highly functional in a society that has been tailored by sociopaths to benefit sociopaths.

Thought originates in a person's heart, as belief, which is a 'This Is' command, which then travels as a signal to a person's brain, and filters through all their considerations, becoming articulated in the process. If able, a person's considerations will reason with the belief as it considers through them. And after having being fully considered, there is output a new meaning, which takes a manifest form, such as an action, the development of a new consideration, etc, and so, by way of Reason, what was considered applies back into the mind which considered it.

Regarding this: "Thought originates in a person's heart, as belief, which is a 'This Is' command, which then travels to a person's brain, and filters through all their considerations, becoming articulated in the process."
... this is why Jesus said "The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart, the mouth speaks."
And Also: "But the things that come out of a person's mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts--murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them."
And another excerpt, from Mark, says: "'Are you so dull?' he asked. 'Don't you see that nothing that enters a person from the outside can defile them? For it doesn't go into their heart but into their stomach, and then out of the body.' (In saying this, Jesus declared all foods clean.)
'What comes out of a person is what defiles them. For it is from within, out of a person's heart, that evil thoughts come--sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and defile a person.'"
That same also declares all drugs to be clean.
What does it look like, when a person believes in the truth, and that belief invokes Reason and causes considering? It follows the pattern that electricity makes for itself, as it moves through a medium - like can be seen at 1:15 of this video:
Or, like can be seen in the synaptic connections in a person's brain, which are the manifestation of belief.
And this manifestation that starts with belief, and, because of Reason, goes on to produce the truth of all things, is also what Jesus referred to when saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches."
And also: "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty pounds of flour until it worked all through the dough."
Just as yeast causes dough to rise, so do the considerations that emanate from belief cause a mind to rise up into the greater perception, and joining of the truth.
No study or science was required in producing the full understanding of these matters, but only considering them from the belief that is good, and with a willingness for truth, rather than for self-benefit and conformity to peer-approval for the sake of experiencing "reward."
And conforming to, and making determinations for the sake of experiencing "reward" is only different than a person stealing money (rather than truth) to buy crack cocaine in that the person stealing money to buy a dopaminergic drug to experience a dopamine increase may well have a legitimate dopamine deficiency that those stealing truth for their fix have prevented from being addressed through other means.

All movement is produced by considering, and a person can only act, or move from one state to another by Reason. To be able to consider, to create movement, a person must first have belief, which creates context between considerations and is a 'This Is' declaration, upon which Reason acts. When a person is unwilling to first have belief, their only other option to progress is by creating false reasons by making determinations, which progressively divide and reduce the connectivity of considerations, which forms their mind and being. A person who does not believe, but who makes determinations to benefit themselves, is continually exhausting their spiritual equity. And the state of no longer having any consideration to be move through is the "outer darkness" that Jesus spoke about. The absence of movement of considerations by being considered through other consideration, is death.
And this is also why this declaration from Jesus is truthful: "And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent."
And also: "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live even if he dies, and the one who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?"
The only way to know something is to have fully considered it, to have its full being considering through oneself, so that it is known - because everything is its considerations.
To have considered something, a person must first have had the belief which provoked and warranted consideration of it. So, if a person truly believes in the only concept which amounts to all considerations, all evaluating as True, all going into one another, producing the state of All in All, then there is no death within that person, but that person has eternal life inside of themselves, and will not see death, as Jesus said: "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life."
And also: "Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them."
