Title: Scar Reveals that He Killed Mufasa

How he shows APD here:

1. He faults others for the extinction of food in the land and refuses to own up to his mistake.

2. He hits Sarabi after she reminds him of how bad of a job he's doing as king compared to Mufasa.

3. When Simba tells him to step down from being king, Scar act like he would if the hyena's would let him, but we know that he's just using them as an excuse.

4. He manipulates Simba into believing that he was the cause of Mufasa's death and gets Simba to admit it himself.

5. When Simba fights back, Scar starts acting pitiful and weak again after just revealing that he killed Mufasa.

Title: Scar Talks to Mufasa and Zazu

How he shows APD here:

1. Firstly, in the beginning of the clip, Scar holds his food, which is a live mouse, captive. He shows absolutely no remorse for the struggling animal.

2. Secondly, when Zazu begins to taunt Scar over how Mufasa is going to be mad at him, Scar shows no fear or remorse that he missed his nephews ceremony. He becomes hostile towards Zazu and even tries to eat him until Mufasa arrives.

3. When he greets Mufasa he has a pessimistic view on why he visited him and makes up obviously false claims as to why he wasn't at the ceremony.

4. He also shows no care for his nephew calling him a "hairball" because he took away his chance at being king.

5. He makes threats that Mufasa shouldn't turn his back on him and when confronted about it, he acts as though he said nothing wrong.

Title: Simba Meets Scar

How he shows APD here:

1. He shows indifference to everything Simba tells him and even insults Simba to which Simba doesn't really notice.

2. When Simba tells him that Mufasa hadn't actually shown him the entire kingdom, Scar manipulates and uses reverse phycology to get Simba to do things that'll get him in trouble/killed without tracing it back to Scar.

Facts

Individuals with antisocial personality disorder know the difference between right and wrong.

A person who is ASPD can be described as a sociopath.

# data[].attributes.body
The estimated lifetime prevalence of ASPD amongst the general population falls within 1 to 4%. Gender distribution tends to be skewed towards males, with 3 to 5 times more likelihood of being diagnosed with ASPD than females, with 6% men and 2% women within the general population. Substance abuse has been found to show a significant correlation to the diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder, while education and intelligence displays a negative correlation, with a higher prevalence of ASPD amongst those with lower IQs and reading levels. Research has shown reductions in the prevalence rate with increasing age in criminal populations, as well as epidemiological samples. Changes in personality traits with age and increased mortality with the behavior of antisocial personality disorder have been hypothesized to justify this age-dependent alteration.

Antisocial personality disorder (APD)

According to the Mayo Clinic, APD "is a mental condition in which a person consistently shows no regard for right and wrong and ignores the rights and feelings of others. People with antisocial personality disorder tend to antagonize, manipulate or treat others harshly or with callous indifference. They show no guilt or remorse for their behavior."

There's no sure way to prevent antisocial personality disorder from developing in those at risk. Because antisocial behavior is thought to have its roots in childhood, parents, teachers and pediatricians may be able to spot early warning signs. It may help to try to identify those most at risk, such as children who show signs of conduct disorder, and then offer early intervention. From Mayo Clinic
