Study Notes
Childhood Behavior Disorders
- Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD): Characterized by age-inappropriate patterns of stubbornness, hostility, and defiance, typically emerging by age 8. Severe behaviors negatively affect parent-child interactions.
- Conduct Disorder (CD): Involves persistent patterns of severe aggression and antisocial behaviors. More common in boys, especially with childhood-onset emerging before age 10, displaying aggressive symptoms.
- Antisocial Personality Disorder (APD): Developed often from CD, it manifests as chronic disregard for others' rights, illegal behavior, and lack of empathy. A subset of CD children may show extreme antisocial features.
Key Differences between ODD and CD
- Most children with ODD do not progress to CD; nearly half of CD cases lack prior ODD diagnosis.
- Adolescent-onset CD may occur equally in boys and girls, being less severe than childhood-onset with fewer violent acts.
Associated Characteristics of Conduct Problems
- Common cognitive and verbal deficits in children with conduct problems.
- Co-occurring ADHD is frequent, with children facing academic challenges and low self-esteem.
- Issues with motor coordination and speech/language impairments are prevalent.
- Health-related issues linked to ADHD include asthma, sleep disturbances, and impulsivity-related accidents.
ADHD Overview
- Prevalence in North America is approximately 6-7% in school-age children. Globally, about 5%.
- More frequently diagnosed in boys, while girls often exhibit inattentive symptoms.
- Early symptoms (hyperactivity, impulsivity) are noticeable by ages 3-4.
Conduct Problems and their Implications
- Conduct problems entail actions violating family, societal, or personal rights, with diverse causes and outcomes.
- Accounting for about 50% of crime in the U.S., early persistent antisocial behavior occurs in approximately 5% of children.
- Costs associated with youth violence are around $10,000 annually per child.
Treatment and Prevention Strategies
- Parent Management Training (PMT): Enhances parent-child interactions focusing on positive behavior and reducing antisocial actions.
- Problem-Solving Skills Training (PSST): Teaches children to assess situations and improve sensitivity in social contexts.
- Multisystemic Therapy (MST): Targets family dynamics for improving youth behavior.
- Preventive interventions like Incredible Years and Fast Track aim to mitigate escalation of conduct problems in at-risk children.
Behavioral and Health-Related Issues
- Conduct problems may lead to anxiety or depression, particularly in adolescence.
- Family dynamics often involve conflict, lack of support, and poor parenting practices.
- Children exhibiting conduct problems are at higher risks for health issues and may have unstable self-perceptions.
Gender Differences in Conduct Problems
- Higher prevalence of conduct problems in boys, with early manifestations usually including aggression and theft; in girls, symptoms may involve sexual misconduct.
- Genetic, neurobiological, and environmental factors contribute to observed gender differences, along with varying definitions of conduct problem behaviors.
