"Today, these two terms are not really well-defined in the psychology research literature."
"The common features of a psychopath and sociopath lie in their shared diagnosis — antisocial personality disorder."
"Psychology researchers generally believe that psychopaths tends to be born — that it’s a genetic predisposition — while sociopaths tend to be made by their environment."
I am so happy that you know enough to unequivocally state that the dictionary definition is wrong and you are right. Sorry, I'll take the dictionary definition over your word.

Excuse me, but I'd like to say: after years of involvement with them academically, I do know what I am talking about.
This is but one link to correct you but there are much more both online and offline, such as in books, that can further explain their differences.
Please do not take this the emotional way.
