Abstract

The present study aimed to explore the link between anxiety, depression, psychological resilience, and somatization in individuals diagnosed with Antisocial Personality Disorder (ASPD), a significant psychiatric condition of both individual and societal importance, whose origins remain unknown.

Moreover, the patient group demonstrated significantly higher scores in the Somatization scale, BDI, and BAI compared to the control group.
