“…Specifically, various research findings provided evidence for prefrontal cortex dysfunctions (Davidson, Putnam, & Larson, 2000;Fitzgerald & Demakis, 2007;Raine et al, 2000;Tang, Jiang, Liao, Wang, & Luo, 2013;Trebuchon, Bartolomei, McGonigal, Laguitton, & Chauvel, 2013), reduced gray matter volume in the parietal lobe (Tang et al, 2013), and reduced gray matter volume in the prefrontal cortex (Raine et al, 2000) in ASPD individuals. Research examining the direct and indirect impact of these brain regions on facets of empathic functioning and inhibitory control are explored below.…”
