Sociopaths and psychopaths are, indeed, not the same. Sociopaths have a weak, scarce, ability to feel remorse, compared to a psychopath, who has little to no feelings of remorse or guilt.
Contrary to the popular belief, not all psychopaths are atrocious murderers or criminals. Numerous successful businessmen have exhibited signals of psychopathy.

OTHER:
