No. Kenneth isn't a sociopath.

I was surprised that Beatty (BB Psychologist) labelled him as one, although it is a common mistake for people to make
- so you shouldn't feel bad about being wrong ElProximo.

Kenneth is more likely to be a psychopath than a sociopath - the conditions are similar, sharing some attributes - however sociopaths are anti-social - it is sometimes referred to as Anti-Social Personality Disorder i.e. they serious lack social skills and are often isolated - kenneth clearly had social abilities- psychopaths however have no problem with social skills (until they chainsaw your head off)

Eh.. well no I would suggest you have this wrong. Sociopaths are (as the BB doctor mentioned) actually well-suited to being very successful in business for example.
Kenneth is an example.

Somewhere you are getting confused and think 'sociopath' is a 'loner' or 'anti-social' (and they might be yes),
versus,
psychopath.

Seriously, I know what I'm telling you and the Psych on the BB panel was entirely correct.
He really was describing it correctly as is the commonly accepted term and definition.
