The authors do not claim that only people with antisocial personality traits tend to choose utilitarian responses:
I was not previously aware of the evidence linking deliberative thinking to utilitarianism, and many other LWers probably aren't. By presenting only the evidence about antisocial personality traits in the post, I think you're giving people a biased impression of the actual state of knowledge in this area of moral psychology.
That's a fair point; I just added to the post.
