Abstract
En 中文
• 37 Chinese Murderers and 50 Controls underwent anatomical MRI. • Murderers showed volume reductions in the amygdala and orbitofrontal cortex. • Findings particularly applied to those who planned their murder. • Higher psychopathy scores were associated with reduced amygdala volumes. • These are the first findings on structural brain deficits in pretrial murderers.
