First, it is now clear that children who qualify for antisocial behavior diagnosis (conduct disorder) are a heterogeneous group and that callous-unemotional traits are helpful in characterising a distinct pattern of vulnerability and prognosis in a subset of these children. Importantly, we used a twin design and compared the parenting that identical twins received. A path model revealed that parental warmth had a negative direct effect on the dimensions callousness and uncaring, which in turn had a positive I first met Tom, a 13-year-old boy at a school for children with emotional and behavioral difficulties, when first starting out on my PhD research.

Dotterer and her colleagues found that higher levels of parental psychopathy were associated with higher levels of callous-unemotional traits in the twins.

By contrast, children who display antisocial behavior, but who have low levels of callous-unemotional traits, look similar to typically developing children on these domains. Since the twins have the same DNA, we know that some of the influence of parenting on callous-unemotional traits must be due to nurture, not just genes shared by more callous parents., The upshot is that parenting does matter and is a good place for treatment of youth with callous-unemotional traits, Dotterer explained. Additionally CU traits are associated with taking the parent-reported Inventory of Callous-Unemotional Traits.
