Summary highlights:
The increase in striatal volume in psychopathic individuals is not an artefact of psychiatric comorbidity.
Increased striatal volumes were associated with greater psychopathic traits in males and in a small female sample.
The need for stimulation and impulsivity partly account for the striatal-psychopathy relationship.
