OVERVIEW
This page is dedicated to organizing various examples of standardized exam questions whose answer is antisocial personality disorder. While this may seem a odd practice, it is useful to see multiple examples of how antisocial personality disorder will be characterized on standardized exams (namely the boards and the shelf exams). This page is not meant to be used as a tradition question bank (as all of the answers will be the same), however seeing the classic “test” characterization for a disease is quite valuable.
QUESTION EXAMPLES

He has been in many physical fights, usually after getting caught cheating at poker. On examination, he seems relaxed and arrogant, and he shows no regret for his actions. What is the likely diagnosis?
