Abstract

The experimental psychological study of mentally healthy offenders accused of crimes committed by the mechanism of impulsive aggression was provided. The control group consisted of healthy male volunteers who did not commit offenses. The battery of psychometric techniques was applied, notably questionnaires of Spielberger, Rusalov’s structure of temperament questionnaire, Rotter’s modified version of the subjective control level assessment, Zuckerman and Buss-Durkee questionnaires. It was shown that the core of pathocharacterological complex of healthy individuals prone to impulsive aggression is temperamental features associated with changes in such components of functional system as afferent synthesis, acceptor of action results, and feedback afferentation. A comparative analysis of the results of mentally healthy persons and persons with borderline psychiatric disorders (that do not exclude responsibility) confirmed the hypothesis that, on the whole, the mechanism of impulsive aggression is not determined by the factor of mental disorder.
