“…An adaptive range of trait impulsivity allows individuals to take action decisively and seize fleeting opportunities with due regard for predictable behavioral consequences (Block, 2002; Dalley et al, 2011). In contrast, dysfunctional trait impulsivity confers vulnerability to harmful life events (e.g., criminality, Blum, Odlaug, Redden, & Grant, 2018; suicide attempts, Cole, Littlefield, Gauthier, & Bagge, 2019; and risky sexual behavior, Curry et al, 2018). Significant considerations bear on the relevance of impulsivity to various neuropsychiatric disorders, ranging from substance abuse (Moeller, Barratt, Dougherty, Schmitz, & Swann, 2001) to attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) (Sudre et al, 2017), borderline personality disorder (Sebastian et al, 2019) and binge eating disorder (Steward et al, 2017).…”

Trait impulsivity is a multifaceted personality characteristic that contributes to maladaptive life outcomes. Although a growing body of neuroimaging studies have investigated the structural correlates of trait impulsivity, the findings remain highly inconsistent and heterogeneous. Herein, we performed a systematic review to depict an integrated delineation of gray matter (GM) substrates of trait impulsivity and a meta‐analysis to examine concurrence across previous whole‐brain voxel‐based morphometry studies. The systematic review summarized the diverse findings in GM morphometry in the past literature, and the quantitative meta‐analysis revealed impulsivity‐related volumetric GM alterations in prefrontal, temporal, and parietal cortices. In addition, we identified the modulatory effects of age and gender in impulsivity‐GM volume associations. The present study advances understanding of brain GM morphometry features underlying trait impulsivity. The findings may have practical implications in the clinical diagnosis of and intervention for impulsivity‐related disorders.

“…The NASP () studies also revealed that this cost is around $13 billion. Additionally, in most cases, shoplifters steal for personal reasons rather than mental illnesses such as kleptomania (Blum, Odlaug, Redden, & Grant, ). Moreover, only a small percentage (3%) of shoplifters are professionals, who are termed “boosters” and steal for profit.…”

In recent years, the marketing literature has expended considerable effort to understand and theorize consumer misbehavior. However, scant research theoretically explores shoplifting. This is surprising, as currently, the annual cost of shoplifting is close to $50 billion in the United States. Utilizing a mixed‐methods approach, we conduct two studies. Study 1 is a qualitative content analysis of online consumer discussions with regard to shoplifting. Study 2 is an empirical examination that uses a US national sample of n = 1,001 consumers; it is designed to test specific hypotheses regarding antecedents to consumers’ intentions to shoplift using an interdisciplinary theoretical framework from criminology, psychology, and marketing. The model integrates research from these different disciplines to improve our understanding of shoplifting by offering avenues to tackle it that supersede traditional security measures in retail. The integrated conceptual framework extends the theory of planned behavior and routine activity theory in understanding the behavioral intentions behind shoplifting. The results show that the suitability of shoplifting targets, offender motivation, and the absence of capable guardians affect potential offenders’ attitudes, subjective norms, and confidence in their ability to shoplift, which, in turn, all influence the intention to shoplift. The results contribute to our understanding of shoplifting and provide implications for retail practitioners over and above merely augmenting store security.

Kleptomani, kişisel kullanım ya da parasal değeri için gereksinme duyulmayan nesneleri tekrarlayıcı biçimde çalmaya yönelik dürtülere karşı koyamama olarak tanımlanan bir ruhsal bozukluktur. Kişilerin engelleyemedikleri bu davranışlarından duydukları utanç ve adli hırsızlık vakaları ile karışmaları sebebiyle yapılan çalışmaların yetersiz olmasından dolayı etiyolojisi, yaygınlığı ve tedavisine yönelik bilgiler kısıtlıdır. Genellikle ergenlik döneminde başlar ve sıklıkla ilerleyen yaşlarda da klinik tablo devam eder. Kleptomani etiyolojisine yönelik olarak psikodinamik yaklaşımlar üzerinde de durulmuştur. Kleptomani duygudurum bozuklukları, obsesif kompulsif bozukluk, madde kötüye kullanımı ile birlikte olabileceği gibi organik beyin patolojilerinde de ortaya çıkabilir. Aynı zamanda epileptik kişilik geliştiren bireylerde de kleptomani vakalarına rastlanmıştır. Tedaviye yönelik olarak seçici serotonin gerialım inhibitörleri, duygudurum dengeleyiciler, antipsikotikler, opioid antagonistlerinin kullanıldığı çalışmalar olmakla birlikte, antiepileptiklerin kullanıldığı olgular da bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada temporal lob kaynaklı epilepsi nedeniyle, uzun süre antiepileptik kullanımını takiben epilepsi cerrahisi geçiren bir hastada, operasyon sonrası gelişen geç başlangıçlı bir kleptomani tablosu sunulmuştur.
