Psychologists have proposed a theory called nature versus nurture by Francis Galton that focuses on innate characteristics of humans (“Nature versus nurture”, (n.d.). Innate characteristics are traits the person is born with, such as behavioral patterns and naturism (“Nature versus nurture”, (n.d.). This debate can help a psychologist dissect the mind of a corrupt teen or an adult killer. Francis Galton proposed the most complex and useful theory (the nature versus nature theory) that can be used in many sources of research. This is the most important aspect of mapping a killer based on nature versus nurture. Some juveniles were abused physically, mentally, emotionally or sexually think the crime can be carried out to serve as a form of justice. Murderers and the nature versus nurture theory both derive from the environmental, psychological, or societal aspects causing delinquency. As a defense to a murderer, the nature versus nurture project has helped psychologists diagnose some inmates on death row with brain disorders that may have caused the inmate to act on impulsive emotions. These mental disorders do not cause a person to be a murderer, but they do contribute to the cause. The only social disorder that causes a person to not have remorse is the Antisocial Personality Disorder (APD). APD is a disorder that often causes manipulation and violation of others, leading to criminal intent (“Antisocial Personality Disorder”,
