Given the evidence that Babiak is relying on, how high would you estimate the odds of his estimate being within a factor of 4 of the actual frequency?
A fourth of (1 in 25) is ~1%, or about the prevalence cited for psychopathy in the general population, so if we assume the same definition of psychopathy those odds are pretty good, I'd say. They'd only not fall into that range if business leaders are less likely to be psychopaths, which isn't an absurd proposition but also isn't one I've seen any evidence for.
