"Spencer Matthews has announced plans to undergo one of TV's most extreme psychological experiments - to find out if he really is a psychopath. The former Made In Chelsea star, 37, will front a one-off Channel 4 documentary that puts his personality to the ultimate test. This comes after his friends and family suggested he showed 'psychopathic traits.' Psychopaths are most famous for their lack of empathy."
"If this is raising alarm bells for you, help is at hand - as experts at Psychology Today have created a simple three-minute test that reveals your levels of psychopathy. Thankfully, it's very unlikely that you're a psychopath. 'Experts estimate that only about 1 percent of people could be classified as true psychopaths,' Psychology Today explained. The test is free to take on Psychology Today's website, and includes 20 statements, which you'll be asked if you agree or disagree with."
Spencer Matthews, 37 and former Made In Chelsea star, will front a one-off Channel 4 documentary that subjects his personality to extreme psychological testing to determine whether he is a psychopath. Friends and family raised concerns about possible psychopathic traits. Psychopathy is characterized by lack of empathy, blunted emotions, manipulative and callous behaviour. A short three-minute online instrument presents 20 agree/disagree statements and yields a 0–100 score; the reported average is 54. Scores 0–19 indicate no antisocial tendencies and high empathy; scores 51–74 indicate some antisocial tendencies. True psychopathy is estimated to affect about 1% of people.
