Pseudopsychology refers to any false and unscientific system of beliefs and practices that is offered as an explanation of behavior.
Pseudopsycopathy which is also known as "Acquired sociopathy" is the emergence of uninhibited and poorly modulated behavior, poor judgment and violation of social norms following orbito-frontal damage. Unlike the true Psychopath or Sociopath, the patient with orbito-frontal damage experiences remorse for inappropriate actions and does not demonstrate the intentional viciousness or planning with regard to committing anti-social acts.
