Q

what is the relationship between CD and ODD

A

developmental relationship–> most kids who meet criteria for CD would have previously med criteria for ODD (at least in those cases in which CD emerges prior to adolescence)

Q

Q

the disruptive/impulse control/conduct disorders have been linked to a common spectrum of what personality dimensions

A

an EXTERNALIZING spectrum with the personality dimensions labeled as DISINHIBITION and CONSTRAINT

and to a lesser extent, negative emotionality

*these shared personality dimensions could account for the high level of comorbidity among these disorders and their frequent comorbidity with SUDs and ASPD
