Why do some people take pleasure in cruelty?

February 18, 2015 //  by Tracy Andersen//  34 Comments

Delroy Paulhus, a professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia in Canada studies the dark side of human beings to define the different flavors of everyday evil. Paulhus has created a series of tests to identify people who have a "dark personality." He works to answer the question: Why do some people take pleasure in cruelty? Not just psychopaths and murderers — but school bullies, internet trolls and even apparently upstanding members of society such as politicians and policemen. Paulhus tends to focus on everyday evil rather than criminal or psychiatric cases. Others have called narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy the "Dark Triad," which is a triple whammy of na …

Brain Science Part 2: Brains of homicidal juveniles appear to be different

February 11, 2015 //  by Tracy Andersen//  Leave a Comment

Editor's note: Second in a series of three articles appearing in other publications on what scientists are learning about the brain and behavior through MRI imaging. Brain scans of 12-18 year old juvenile offenders who have committed homicides look different than the scans of juvenile offenders who have not committed homicides, according to a study published in the journal NeuroImage: Clinical. Dr. Kent Kiehl, of the Mind Research Network in Albuquerque, New Mexico, says the differences have serious implications for understanding some of the root brain problems that could lead youths to cross a line and commit violent crime. Dr. Kiehl hopes that through neuroscience, at-risk kids may be …

Know the signs of emotional abuse

December 31, 2014 //  by Tracy Andersen//  4 Comments

Emotional abuse in a marriage is a covert form of domestic violence. But by the time you identify the true problem, you may already feel like you are crazy. You doubt yourself and your own sense of reality, because emotional abuse is meant to cause you to question your every thought and behavior.

How to divorce a narcissist

November 30, 2014 //  by Tracy Andersen//  3 Comments

Divorce coach and founder of The Inspired Divorce, Lindsey Ellison, says that “divorcing a narcissist may be the toughest fight of your life.” While doing her research for her blog:  Secret to Engaging a Narcissist, Ellison came upon Robert Farzad, president of Farzad Family Law in Orange County, California, who believes that those divorcing a narcissist "lose" their case because they never have a strategy and end up surrendering. Farzad says that "all of your emotions and what you feel are irrelevant. The minute you react to that person, you are already losing the battle." Farzad  suggests if you're divorcing a narcissist, "stop feeling and start thinking." The Secret to Divorcing a Na …

UK broadens definition of domestic abuse to include controlling, coercive and threatening behavior

November 28, 2014 //  by Tracy Andersen//  14 Comments

British Home Secretary Theresa May wants men and women who trap their partners in a cycle of emotional cruelty to be prosecuted and jailed under tough new laws proposed by ministers. Police and prosecutors would be expected to take action against those who trap their partners in a "living hell" through a campaign of psychological and financial control. Last year, the British government broadened the definition of domestic abuse to encompass "any incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive or threatening behaviour, violence or abuse, between those aged 16 or over who are, or have been, intimate partners or family members regardless of gender or sexuality." New law to i …

An abused woman’s negotiation with herself

November 18, 2014 //  by Tracy Andersen//  1 Comment

Writing in the first person, Reut Amit describes a dialog that many abused women know: As long as her partner wasn't hitting her, she could put up with his lies, his cheating, his verbal and psychological abuse, and her isolation. “I set a benchmark. The red line I wouldn't cross. The minute he hit me, I would leave,” Amit writes on Huffington Post. With the help of other abused women, she did not wait until the arbitrary red line was crossed to get out of the relationship. He Never Hit Me, from HuffingtonPost.com.

Husband indicted for wife’s deadly fall off Rocky Mountain cliff

November 14, 2014 //  by Tracy Andersen//  1 Comment

Harold Henthorn, 58, from Denver was indicted by a federal grand jury for first-degree murder of his wife Toni Henthorn a successful ophthalmologist. The two went hiking in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park for their twelfth wedding anniversary. Toni went over the side of a cliff and died before help could arrive. Harold is suspected of pushing her to her death. “Harold Henthorn seemed controlling and dishonest about the couple's financial situation, lying about a business he claimed to own so that Toni would move away from her family in Mississippi to be with him in Denver,” said her brother, Todd Bertolet, according to the Associated Press. Henthorn stood to inherit hundreds of th …

“Systemic pattern” of sex abuse at Horace Mann, elite NYC prep school

November 13, 2014 //  by Tracy Andersen//  3 Comments

Horace Mann was, and remains, one of New York City's most rigorous and respected private prep schools. But over the last few years, 63 students have come forward with allegations that they were sexually abused by 22 former Horace Mann staff members. The incidents allegedly took place between 1962 and 1996. The Bronx district attorney said they found a "systemic pattern" of alleged sexual abuse but can't  prosecute because the statute of limitations ran out. An investigative report was due to be released last month, but there is no mention of it on the Internet. School sexual abuse survivors end decades of secrecy, on People.com. Bronx D.A. finds 'systemic pattern' of abuse at Horace M …
