the article uses the word "psychopathology" which is notably different from psychopathy. the form of pscyhopathology referred to here is psychosis, not psychopathy or anti-social personality disorder.

True. I didn't notice that.

The definition of psychopathology still indicates "disorder," though, which in the case of science in general indicates a departure from a generally observed and accepted order.
