Schizophrenics don't really have a different set of rules; some of their brain cells fire randomly, so they get "perceptions" that aren't really perceptions, like hallucinations and delusions.
Sociopaths have their own rules, but they are almost entirely self-centered. They never internalize the rules of society, but they do learn what they are so they can fake it: for a sociopath, social interaction is acting.
