How To Spot Sociopathic Traits: The Road To Sociopathy- Psychotherapy Crash Course

- Do you know what narcissistic personality disorder is?
What about a true sociopath?
You may feel you understand and can spot them a mile away, but you are likely missing a major component to who they are. And that...is a combination of genes and environment.
When I worked in a juvenile delinquency center and school a few years ago, I was exposed to some of the most "criminal" thinking, sociopathic, oppositional, and callous kids I had ever seen. While I liked many of them and they seemed to like me, they were very influenced by their home environment and the early childhood and developmental road they took. For many of these adjudicated delinquent youths, deception, calculation, violation of other's rights, and manipulation were a way of life for them. They had little to no conceptualization of how their actions impact other people. All they knew was that they had to survive and in order to survive someone has to get hurt.
Sadly, because this way of thinking and behaving was not being appropriately treated, some of the youths went on to graduate high school and then interact in the real world. God only knows how they are doing and if they are deceiving and calculating as we speak.
Adults who become sociopaths became that way because of early childhood experiences including genes and biology.
As you will learn in this video, I discuss this road and explain the psychological and behavioral conditions often to blame for antisocial behavior.
I welcome your comments and questions!

Extreme stress, sleep deprivation, unhealed childhood trauma, Aspergers can result in some of those symptoms and behaviours. "All one can do is giving medication"?What about trauma testing and -therapy?What about helping with a appropriate life-style and spiritual practice? Many don't get examined and diagnosed properly, and diagnoses aren't well understood.not speaking of the obvious, bölatant cases, but the misunderstood, prematurely judged ones.
How concerned should I be if my ex is in jail for trying to kill me, and when he gets out? He is a sociopath and highly narcissistic whose mother has enabled and babied him his whole life. I have actually witnessed him fake cry in front of her for attention. Do these people come after the person who had them locked away? Or do they forget with time and get out and leave the person alone?
My mother is a sociopath. I didn't know it when I was a kid growing up but now I recognize the signs. She was amoral and taught my sister's how to gaslight me. They put me under such stress that I ended up in a behavioral clinic where I was treated for suicidal depression. Then when I went home they continued to gaslight me. Making fun of the medication the doctors put me on and laughing at me for having been institutionalized. When my half sister would push my buttons, my mom would either laugh or check her hair for split ends. I ended up being diagnosed with emotional and rejection sensitivity dysphoria years later. I never told them and they just kept gaslighting me in my 20's and 30's. They would insult me by calling me bipolar. Not one psychiatrist ever diagnosed me with and of the bipolar spectrum or had me on any bipolar medication. Now the only medication I take to deal with my sensitivity is high blood pressure medication. Needless to say, my mom and sisters are no longer a part of my life and I'm able to live my life without the worry of being lashed out on and treated like I have a skew perspective.
I'm sorry you dealt with that . We need to hold these people responsible
She's a narcissistic mom
My mother is a completely calculating sociopath but she never tortured animals or set fires, she just sadistically mentally tormented anyone close enough to her that she considered them her property.
That sounds more like narcissist behavior
The scary part is that I tick a lot of these boxes. I don't think I ever had CD, I did not dare to do anything to upset my parents or teachers. But I could be covertly disobedient. I used to start fires, I was fairly responsible about it, I wasn't trying to burn anything down... I just liked fire. I loved my pets though, and would never be cruel to them.
I was usually pretty honest, and didn't get pleasure out of other's pain. But as I got older, after a lot of abuse by my parents (sadistic emotionally abusive) I started to have fantasies of violence. It just got worse and worse. The abuse by my parents got worse too.
I confided these thoughts to a counsellor, but they weren't too worried by it. I started to go away from this way of thinking, as not only did I want to lead a good, ethical life, but also I thought being like that wasn't good for me in any way either.
There was no happiness in those feelings, it was actually exhausting. As I moved away from thinking and feeling like that, I experienced much more satisfaction. I learnt to make longer term goals and develop self accountability.
I believe a few things saved me from continuing down the antisocial road. I personally believe my above average intellegence helped me see the dead end road of being a sociopath. I didn't recieve much counselling really.
It is wonderful to feel good about yourself, to feel empathy for others, to be a whole person and not wear a mask, to feel emotions other than anger and rage.
My husband’s narcissistic BPD/psychopath adult daughter moved in with us 3 months ago. She can’t hold down a job. She had one for two weeks but she said it was toxic and being run unethically. Although the first week she was singing praises about the wonderful Christian environment and bragging that her boss was telling everyone that husbands daughter is such a strong Christian woman.
We’ve not spent much time with her over the last 8 years, maybe once or twice a year for her to receive a gift. So this is a shock to our family.
I’ve noticed a weekly pattern. For 2 days she is able to act normalish. Day 3 a visable shutdown begins, starts standing in different areas throughout the house staring at walls , I’ve witnessed her often just sitting in the dark and in our 18 month old daughter princess tent. Halfway through day 3 she leaves for an hour and then retreats to our motor home, where she is living. The next four days there is little interaction, she mumbles when responding and only comes in for bathroom, food and drink. She deliberately ignores the baby when she is trying to talk to her or give leg hugs.
My husband put a lock on the door that leads to the baby’s room and our room, he is fearful she will hurt her. She did attack my husband when she was 15 with a bow and arrow. He was life flighted to a critical care trauma hospital. He lost everything. House and everything. He. Was always under the impression that she freaked out over being grounded and phone taken.
A couple months ago while I was having a glass of wine with her and she told me it was premeditated. She thought for weeks how she was going to hurt him and contemplated whether to us a gun or compound bow..
I thought that by showing her a loving family environment that maybe we could help her. I don’t think that’s the case.
@@Namanzw she killed herself in February. She was found in a park on February 18.
She never planned on living past the age of 25. I found her journals.
We are heart broken.
@@Namanzw ❤️
'if that is not treated'
A big issue in these kinds of situations is that the individual concerned, like many mentally ill people, refuses to look for or accept treatment. Meanwhile innocent people often have to go on suffering from the obnoxious behaviour of sociopaths.
Thank you so much for making these videos on sociopathy, Tamara. Grateful if you could advise on recovery for people who have endured emotional and psychological abuse growing up with a sociopath.
Great information!!!!! It goes to show that if things are handled when children are young, EVERYONE is better off.
Thank you Lakeycha!! Thanks for watching. And I very much agree.
My grandmother used to say "spare the rod while they're young." In other words, raise them while you can.
Yes, because you don't want the world to raise them.
@@keychabudgets agree!👍
I have ADHD and that makes me feel bad about myself. This new found stigma. Ive been in therapy for 4 years (for PTSD) and just found out I have ADHD recently. I don't have any personality disorders. Never been in trouble and I don't lie or manipulate.
Hey, please don't feel bad. Not everyone with ADHD is like this, you're obviously not. I was unfortunately, but I think it was a combination of having ADHD and experiencing a lot of abuse. But thankfully I grew out of the antisocial stuff.
That’s scary. How many children are being diagnosed with ADHD these days and don’t get the help they need.
Ms Hill thank you so much for this valuable information. You are absolutely correct many sociopaths do seek positions to do more widespread damage, ie politics, law, law enforcement, etc.
You do the best job so far of all videos and educators I’ve been following, on spotting these folks in actual relationships! Thank you! Best examples and signs!
Thanks so much! I'm glad to hear this.
Hi im sure this will get buried lol but your. Channel has helped me understand why I feel this certain way about others and it helps really thanks for the help and all the info I’ve been diagnosed for quite awhile now and it’s hard too explain the reasons behind my actions but understanding that i am what i am and can change it even if i feel like its a waste etc. Helps with my self awareness of my actions on others and keeps my head straight. I must kinda sound ridiculous but really thx for helpin those who feel like they have these issue (ADHD-ODD-ADD-ASPD) but don’t wanna seek out help. If sure it helps them relate i know it helps me and I’ve been diagnosed with all of those for the past two decades and really explains alot about me n others like me ⭐️⭐️⭐️
My children have asd adhd trauma and other conditions my daughter in special school. Getting a great care. My daughter takes automoxitine which as worked great for her anxiety.
There dads a domestic abuser (anti social personally I think)
I’m starting a a therapy course for non Violence resistance. They both very high risk for this and we have to address it. It took years to get help. Our world fell apart in so many different ways. It painful to live with and very isolating. I’m praying this parenting style with really help us. The special school has really helped my daughter. This is real for some families and it’s extremely scary and soul destroying for parents. Especially when the fathers are highly abusive and damaged both you and there children. Thank you for this video it so close to home for me.
You're welcome.
Thank you for sharing this Alena. I'm sure a lot of people can relate to you. I have so many clients/patients going through this right now. It takes a lot of strength, courage, and resilience to get through.
Take care
Thank you so much your so right so many families are in this position and I urge all of them to reach out and stop this cycle. There is help it may be hard to find but when you find it and you commit to change the future it’s brighter. We separated over 6 years ago and I thought I could handle it and he wouldn’t damage my children.... I couldn’t have been so wrong. The Video you done legacy of trauma was just so resonating as well. Thank you your content is fantastic. Without drs like your self so many of us will never be able to make sense of our childhoods and commit to a better life. 🙂
We are in such a better place now with support and knowledge. Im creating healthy boundaries to protect my self and model to my children.
My children have had no contact for over a year and they are more confident happy and resilient I feel empowered as there mother now.
We are not out of the woods by any means but we have so much hope for the future I just want to let others know going through this that it’s possible to get out of. But you can’t do it alone you need people you can trust and the law and authorities, these people are relentless and won’t stop but when the buck don’t stop with you it makes the process not impossible Thank you so much for your reply.
Absolutely!! You're welcome.
And thank you. I love this God-given work and I'm glad these videos are helpful!
It's a good thing when you step back from the unhealthy personality and see yourself live again. That's healing.
this sound logical, and very hypothetical and theoretical. Giving what a child truly enjoys to focus their energy and stop trying to force them to conform to an academic system. Bring art and music back into school.
My husband is crazy and yells at me all the time for the things he lies about. He is a narcissist and he has no empathy. All he thinks about is himself and his image. He does not care about the people he hurts.
Yep, the progression you described is the truth! Thanks!
Thanks E Wooding! Thanks for watching.
Wow. This entire soceity is mentally ill. Thank you for breaking down this into layers, I think ppl mix up a lot of these things and use these terms very loosley, someone doesn't become a murderer over a night
This is really interesting! Thank you, I’m loving watching your videos.
I’m just wondering can sociopaths and psychopaths have big friendship groups and seemingly close families that don’t really seem to see how manipulative they are? But they unleash their cruelty to their love conquests or their partners?
Thank you Sam!
And that's a great question. The answer is yes. That's where sociopaths and psychopaths are made. They learn hos to manipulate in these groups first then they move to society the older they get. It's disturbing to say the least.
@@TherapistTamaraHill It really is! Thanks so much for your response.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Thank you. Your explanations are amazing. So clear and concise. Right video at the right time.
You're welcome!! Very glad this was helpful.
I was diagnosed with ADHD when i was 8 and i sort of relate to some of the later disorder symptoms. I don't care about others or what they're saying I've impulsively used people to get what i want. I've lied and stolen so many times and skipped school when i was younger ive also done money laundering and just sell weed. I was once with a friend on the Brooklyn bridge when we saw a a woman jump my friend grieved and asked why i was so calm i said people die all the time. He said that was cold and ignorant. A year later he died too i didn't really feel much it's a shame it happened but i don't feel any deep emotions I've always felt a certain way about things and i don't really consider or care to about how others feel. I might look from their perspective but i don't really compromise if i want something.
wow. sounds like my student teaching experience.
I'm sorry. These kiddos are tough.
Interesting! I didn’t know about this typical trajectory. Thank you 🍃
Looking forward to this series! Thank you for doing this.
If I suspect someone is a sociopath how do I end the relationship?
Hi truth4utoda, thanks for watching!! Great question.
I would slowly distance myself until the person releases you from their hold or you are able to get away untouched. Sociopaths have fragile egos and struggle with direct confrontation.
@Ella Rose 😂
I enjoyed listening today. I will continue to take notes from your pearls of wisdom. ☺
Thank you🤭😊
Unbelievable!!!
Honestly am shoched. Where does Science say that ADHD has anything to do with sociopathy????
"Other co-occurring disorders
Aside from other personality disorders, ASPD can also co-occur with conditions such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and substance abuse. Co-occurring disorders can make a sociopath’s behavior even more unpredictable.
ADHD. Of course, most people with ADHD diagnoses aren’t sociopaths. However, having ADHD can be a risk factor for developing this personality disorder, and impulsivity can be a major feature of both conditions."
www.helpguide.org/articles/personality-disorders/antisocial-personality-disorder-aspd.htm#:~:text=Co%2Doccurring%20disorders%20can%20make,major%20feature%20of%20both%20conditions.
Hope this is clarifying.
It is certainly a risk factor.
Thank you for this video. I do want to mention though that I think conduct disorder does not necessarily always manifest to such extremes and maybe why it goes unnoticed or untreated more readily.
Very true. I don’t think that's what was implied. No mental health, behavioral, or personality disorder directly predicts a certain course. It's just a predisposition.
Is it still deemed as conduct disorder if you were to do these things as a minor but don’t have any criminal charges as an adult?
Thankyou Tamara for sharing your insights.
I have a question -why do paternal aunts feel jealous of the niece ?Does it have to do with the fact that they also belonged to same house and lineage and feel frustrated ? How do I ensure that this toxic trait of female jealously does not spread horizontally and vertically through generations ?
What is a person that only cares about their immediate family but has limited empathy or caring for anyone outside their family?
That's a good question! I would still call them a sociopath or narcissist. It's selfish! You don't care about the world or those around you but you no one else in the world who too needs kindness, compassion, understanding, etc. It's selfish.
@@TherapistTamaraHillThanks so much for the response. You are brilliant. :)

@@TherapistTamaraHill 💗
I definitely suffer from ASPD traits due to normalizing my mom’s cruelty to our family and small animals LOL. Specifically squirrels. My parents had owned an airsoft gun supply shop as a side business, and my mom had always been into weapons for some reason.
Anyways, we used to have these rectangular humane traps for squirrels in our yard. We would catch many, and my mom would kill every single one of them on her own. She would tase them or shoot them enough with an airsoft gun until they died. The worst one was when she would fill a cooler with water and then would submerge the cage into it to drown it. You just watched it swim around and drown because it was stuck in the cage.
She would constantly normalize calling my sister “retarded” or “ugly.” My brother was normalized as a “faggot” or a “n****r” because he was tanned from water polo. She would tell me I was ugly or just like my dad. Mix that in with some religious trauma and competition with my mom. 🙄🤣
Oh my. This mother needed help! The sad part is that these kind of sadistic acts are not easily treated in psychotherapy --- mainly because she probably doesn't see the problem in her behavior and may not even care. That a complicated set of behaviors that most likely explains her childhood. The best way to "heal" from this is to vow never to follow in her footsteps.
@@TherapistTamaraHill Thank you for the response! My mother has a lot of delusional religious beliefs as well, so I agree that she does not necessarily see an issue in her behavior.
I think I have done the best of my siblings (I am the youngest) in terms of refraining from animal cruelty. I was never physically abused as a child due to CPS being called for my older siblings back in 1995. I see why they may be more inclined to show physical cruelty to animals and others.
Love your videos, thanks for all you do. :)
What about the other side of it. Maybe not all of them are abusive or hurting others but they just simply don’t care about others but it doesn’t progress.
ahhh... that explains the whole trolling phenomenon!
☺ Thanks for watching Valtressa!
Interesting video. I guess it's a little comforting that there is a progression, it gives one a sense of control over something that is very scary. I just finished "The sociopath next door" and the gist I got from that is that sociopaths don't have a conscience, which is influenced by our social feelings (empathy). In the book sociopathy and psychopathy were used interchangeably. So how I view it at this point in time is like an amputation or a neurological disability.
My question to you is, what is your opinion on nature vs nurture? From your video it seems like you lean towards nurture... that if a predisposed condition is left and escalates (maybe due to environmental pressures) it can become the big S or P. How does this gel (if at all) with the theory that they're disabled in a way? Am I way off course?
Thanks. :)
finally someone thats knows there stuff..
Oh how easier it is for them. Really? Cause from this side it seems like normal folks got a memo that we missed. Also for the people that say it is easier for sociopaths: do you have any idea how hard it is to try and resist impulses and urges daily, it is like a craving for a drug, somewhere you know it is damaging and not doing good but it so damn hard to resist. Along other things but it gets too long.
If you feel this way then you're likely not a real sociopath. You may have some traits and a lack of empathy in some ways (or most) but that doesn't mean, especially if you don't have a formal diagnosis from a professional, that you are a sociopath. No sociopath is going to say "being a sociopath is hard."
@@TherapistTamaraHill I mean not everyone is the same right? So if the person had a diagnosis and they find it hard to live their daily lives they might feel their life is hard. I mean just because they may not feel much towards anything really doesn’t mean they don’t care about themselves
@@samarthalinegwesinie1136 I think you are talking about someone with a conscience and empathy. Caring is not a sociopath in the clinical sense. Caring about something is not a sociopath unless they are motivated to care because of reputation, money, etc. If you care about something in an emotional (maybe "connected") way...that's not sociopathathy.
It's not easy to draw the line.😉
@@TherapistTamaraHill if you mean me I’m fine. Thanks but I just don’t like when people dehumanize these people. They’re not living their lives it’s stupid really to try to assume
All these stories I am reading, we have been through alot. May God 🙌
Very true!
Thanks
You're welcome!
Hello Dr. Hill, I was curious if you deleted your video on female sociopathy? I cant seem to find it & you're the only person that had a realistic video on female sociopathic traits. Would love to see more videos on this subject... I know it's a touchy one. But I really liked your neutral tone throughout the video. Most people talking about psychopaths/sociopaths speak in unrealistic generals & they have an angry, scorn tone.
Anyway, I appreciated your video.. if it's still around & you find the time to do another ♡
Hi there!! Thank you for pointing this out. I'm not sure why but the icon on this video is mysteriously changing without my consent. So I am working with RUclips on this. Here it is: ruclips.net/video/HXE51E6HiHk/видео.html. One of my most famous videos on RUclips so I certainly would not delete it. It appreciate you asking out it.
And thank you for all of your kind comments! I will be doing another video in the future for sure.
@Támara Hill, MS NCC CCTP LPC Oh ok great, Im very much looking forward to it! And yeah, I ended up finding it right after I asked. It's weird how the title/thumbnail changed.. Well goodluck w it & thank you again for the insightful videos.
You're welcome! And I agree, very weird. I'm waiting on RUclips to clarify that.
But glad to have you on the channel!
This is why teachers are quitting. Why are parents not setting limits? THAT’s the real problem.
Mom: my baby didn’t do anything wrong, they’re not a problem at home.
I think that’s a good way to put it as the DSM states that ADHD is the gateway to ASPD (Antosocial personality disorder) it is stated that ADHD brains share some of the abnormalities as the Psychopath brain, even tho ADHD can be caring and very empathic if raised and treated at an earlier stage it can become chaotic if not treated early and living in an environment with bad behavior.
At what age is conduct disorder usually diagnosed? My son was in therapy for adhd when he was five and we are back in therapy. Therapist suspects he may have conduct disorder and he is 13. I’m very worried about this. He’s in a loving home where he is consistently held accountable but he still has no regard for consequences. His biological father was a sociopath.
I'm sorry to hear this because I have a family right now that I just diagnosed a child with conduct disorder. It's a tough diagnosis because a lot of family see it as a dead end road when the reality is that a child could come out of it at a certain age.
Conduct disorder can be diagnosed as young as 10 years old which would be childhood onset. Adolescent onset would be 13 and up.
Keep in mind that the core features of conduct disorder is deceitfulness or deception, lying and having a complete disregard for the feelings and rights of others, inability to feel empathy for people that do not deserve to be treated wrongly, behaviors that are considered criminal such as stealing or cheating or threatening other people, starting fights or getting into multiple fights and bullying others or intimidating others, and showing physical aggression in or outside of the home.
A child previously diagnosed with oppositional defiant disorder or ADHD can also receive the diagnosis.
A child who is being suspended multiple times from school because of the above behaviors is also conduct disorder.
Stay tuned on my channel because I am considering doing a live chat about this topic soon and you can ask me questions live.
@@TherapistTamaraHill thank you so much for your reply.
I love your videos.
Thank you 💖
I wish this wasn't geared towards male sociopaths.
Check out my video on female sociopaths too.
what is the music ?
Can EMDR be used to minimize the risks of sociopathy?
That's a good question. I'm not entirely sure and I'm not aware of any research that correlates the two. EMDR is usually used for trauma or individuals who have a trauma history. The only thing I can think of is if the sociopath has a trauma history EMDR therapy may be helpful. Otherwise I'm not sure.
@@TherapistTamaraHill Thank you!! I read about C-PTSD and the fight response taken to the extreme they call sociopathy. That's why. Thanks again! :)
You made a reference to Ritalin, that's what has caught my interest. The administration of that drug is becoming a hot issue within the black community. What is your opinion of the administration if Ritalin to black boys in schools .
Hi Thomas, thank you for your comment. And thank you for watching! I will say that ritalin for ADHD is controversial because of its drug properties. Ritalin, in a science lab, is known as methylphenidate which includes an important and addictive ingredient, meth. Because of this, using medications or becoming addicted is high. We know that African-American males struggle as it is in our society much less to put them on medication that can hook them.
I've never been a proponent of Ritalin. Although some individuals need it, we have to look at the huge repercussions of using it.
Great question!
@@TherapistTamaraHill I thought Meth was something seperate, called Methamphetamine as opposed to Methylfenidate. Meth is an Amphetamine which is a (predominantly) dopamine agonist, while on the other hand Ritalin or Methylfenidate is a dopamine antagonist. So, correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t the two separate from each other but just having similar results as in effects?
So are you saying that every sociopath has conduct disorder? I completely disagree.
@Mason Webber I don't believe that's what I said although I would have to go back and review this video. A statement like that would be a blanket statement and not one that would be a smart one so I don't believe I said that. I may have been making reference to the fact that most sociopaths engage in behaviors that could be categorized, while growing up, as conduct disorder because of the criminal things that they do. Most kids with conduct disorder become sociopaths. Research supports this. But not everyone who is a sociopath has conduct disorder and I think we both can agree to that.
Gina B.
3 4 5 6 7 these five diagnostic criteria from the DSM 5 apply right for me
So, Is it possible that If a woman had a high - functioning sociopathy, she wouldnt really have to be as deliquent as men in her childhood?
I'm not quite understanding the question. However, I can answer this question based on how I am perceiving it. An individual who has some features of sociopathy may not become the delinquent sociopath that someone else in his or her life has become. There are some socipaths who are "adjusted well" to society and can fit in better than more aggressive and violent socipaths. Research suggests these sociopaths do things behind the scenes and may manipulate (at great extents) someone else's life or cheat or steal. But for them to become delinquent and involved in criminal acts that involve great acts of violence is rare.
@@TherapistTamaraHill thank you :)

I approved your comment as a teaching opportunity..
Keep in mind that your profile may not be similar to someone else with ADHD and that some people exhibit different forms of ADHD.
Research is varied and some studies point to a direct association between ADHD and antisocial personality disorder, which can, for some, transition over time into sociopathy.
Here's an example of that
www.helpguide.org/articles/personality-disorders/antisocial-personality-disorder-aspd.htm#:~:text=Co%2Doccurring%20disorders%20can%20make,major%20feature%20of%20both%20conditions.
AND
"Children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are thought to be at higher risk of psychopathy. Early biological and social adversity may contribute to this:"
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19118328/#:~:text=Background%3A%20Children%20with%20attention%2Ddeficit,may%20contribute%20to%20this%20risk.

"Numerous studies have established the link between ADHD and antisocial behavior, one of the most serious functional impairments caused by the disorder."

This is certainly just scratching the surface.
I hope this clarifies things for you.
I thought the DR dropped ADHD as a diagnosis.
What has adhd and add ( which don't even exist) got to do with sociopathy...........
You think ADHD and ADD don’t exist? How exactly did you come to that conclusion
Maybe because some docs think ADHD is a symptom from a deeper underlying biological problem like an adrenal imbalance. Just a guess but I've heard that before
@@rockinrver7414 It's also considered indicative of eXtreme TRAUMA, (would be my guess) when really severe, or especially, early on. Like, manifesting from 1.5 to 2.5+ y.o.
As well as, a Disorder of "executive function". Starting with short-term memory!
From 5-8 y.o. INFO, but, no doubt, they've zeroed in much better as to what causes what.
And All "common sense," and pretty obvious, in hindsight. 50 to 60 years, after-the-fact.
So is this 100% about the male characteristics on purpose or.....? Just happened to forget about the role gender plays on the way these traits are exhibited?
