A sociopath is someone who can't empathize with other people. Basically they don't view those around them as fellow human beings; they're objects who exist purely for the sociopath's gratification.

I looked up the definition, and Tomohiko Kazami in the anime doesn't quite meet all the requirements: he doesn't exhibit excessively bold behavior (if his unwillingness to express his feelings for Yukari is any indication). However, he's rather antisocial (his only real friend is someone he's known his entire life) and he demonstrates a complete lack of remorse after committing two cold-blooded murders. So two out of three isn't so bad, right?
