Abstract

This article discusses several research papers related to the behavioral science. According to the research paper "Minds, Brains, and Program," by John Searle, intentionality in human beings, and animals, is a product of causal features of the brain. According to the research paper "The Sociobiology of Sociopathy: An Integrated Evolutionary Model," by Linda Mealey, sociopaths are "outstanding" members of society in two senses, politically, they draw our attention because of the inordinate amount of crime they commit, and psychologically, they hold our fascination because most people cannot fathom the cold, detached way they repeatedly harm and manipulate others.
