Brief Summary

Studies on Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), in which criminal behaviors, aggression and anger behaviors are frequently seen, are very rare. Developed by Nosrat Peseschkian, positive psychotherapy is an eclectic therapy approach born from the psychodynamic approach, existential-humanist approach, behavioral approach and intercultural therapy approach. Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a humanistic, psychodynamic, resource-focused, conflict-solving, integrative and intercultural approach that has its own unique intervention methods as well as the features of other therapy theories. In this study, it was aimed to determine the primary and secondary abilities of individuals with criminal and non-criminal antisocial personality disorder within the scope of positive psychotherapy, to compare these abilities with respect to healthy individuals, and to examine the effects on crime, aggression behavior and anger levels.
