So you're saying that included in their goals is an explicit urge for dominance, that is absent (or weakened) in 'normal' human beings? I suppose it sounds plausible, but I'd like to see some references.
Most people have it to a small extent (it's a feature present all across the animal kingdom, after all), but in psychopaths it is exacerbated.
Sorry, no references. Just a speculation that seems strongly consistent with what I know so far about them.
