<![CDATA[This study aims to describe the forms and factors related to psychopathic behavior in the novel School Intelligence Agency 2 Who is the Mastermind? by IntanZS. This study uses a literary psychology approach with the characteristics of Robert D. Hare's psychopathy as the basis for analysis. The source of the research is the novel, while the data is in the form of novel quotes that show the psychopathic behavior of the characters. The results of the study show that there are several forms of psychopathic behavior in the characters, namely antisocial, manipulative, aggressive, sadistic behavior, and lack of remorse and guilt. Antisocial behavior is shown through the tendency to violate norms and threaten the safety of others. Manipulative behavior is seen through the use of beliefs, lies, and the act of trapping others to achieve certain goals. Aggressive behavior is shown through physical violence and verbal threats. Sadistic behavior is represented through acts of violence and a series of deaths that cause suffering to the victim. Meanwhile, the behavior of not being remorseful and not feeling guilty can be seen from the attitude of the character who remains calm after committing an act that is detrimental or causes the death of others. Factors related to the emergence of these behaviors are mainly seen through the environment and social experiences filled with conflict, pressure, intrigue, betrayal, and violence. Based on these results, it is hoped that this research can be a reference for readers to produce new works, especially those that use literary psychology theories and psychopathic behavior phenomena, as well as encourage further research with more in-depth studies in the fields of literature and psychology.]]>
