Disruptive/Impulse/Conduct Disorders: Part 1 (General, ODD, IED, Conduct) Flashcards
1
Q
what is different about the disorders in this chapter
A
trouble with emotional/behavioural regulation that manifests in behaviours that VIOLATE the rights of others (i.e aggression, destruction of property) and/or that bring the individual into SIGNIFICANT CONFLICT with societal norms or authority figures
2
Q
what disorder is included in this DSM chapter but is actually described elsewhere
A
antisocial PD
3
Q
between CD, IED and ODD, which disorder focuses mostly on poorly controlled behaviours? which focuses mostly on poorly controlled emotions? which disorder is the “middle ground” in which criteria are more evenly distributed between emotions and behaviours?
A
CD–> behaviours
IED–> emotions
ODD–> more even mix of both
4
Q
the disruptive/impulse control/conduct disorders generally tend to be more common in which gender
A
males
5
Q
when do the disruptive/impulse control/conduct disorders tend to have their onset
A
childhood or adolescence
–> very rare for ODD or CD to first emerge in adulthood
6
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)
7
Q
do most children with ODD go on to develop CD?
A
no, most do not
are at risk for eventually developing other conditions, like anxiety and depression
8
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
9
Q
what are the 3 categories of symptoms in criterion A for ODD
A
angry/irritable mood
argumentative/defiant behaviour
vindictiveness
10
Q

- is often touchy or easily annoyed
- is often angry or resentful
12
Q
what are the symptoms listed in the “argumentative/defiant behaviour” cluster for criterion A for ODD

- often actively defies or refuses to comply with requests from authority figures or with rules
- often deliberately annoys others
- often blames others for his or her mistakes or misbehaviour
13
Q
what are the symptoms listed in the “vindictiveness” cluster for criterion A for ODD
A
has been spiteful or vindictive at least TWICE in the past 6 months
14
Q
what is criterion A for ODD
A
a pattern od angry/irritable mood, argumentative/defiant behaviour, or vindictiveness lasting at least 6 MONTHS as evidenced by at least FOUR symptoms from any of the following categories, and exhibited during interaction with at least ONE individual who is NOT A SIBLING
there are 8 symptoms spread across the three symptom clusters (see other cards)
15
Q
how do you distinguish a behaviour that is within normal limits from a behaviour that is symptomatic in the case of ODD
A
the persistence and frequency of the behaviour
kids younger than 5–> behaviour occurs on MOST DAYS for a period of at least 6 months
people aged 5+–> behaviour should occur at least ONCE PER WEEK for at least 6 months
16
Q
criterion B for ODD
A
assoc. with distress in the individual or others in his or her immediate context or impacts functioning
17
Q
criterion C for ODD
A
not exclusively during course of psychotic, SUD, depressive, bipolar d/o
criteria NOT met for DMDD
18
Q
how do you determine severity for ODD
A
number of settings in which symptoms are present
mild–> sx only in 1 setting
moderate–> sx in at least 2 settings
severe–> symptoms in 3+ settings
19
Q
can you diagnose ODD if sx only occur at home and with family members
A
yes–> this is not uncommon
but pervasiveness of symptoms is an indicator of the severity of the disorder
20
Q
how do people with ODD typically view themselves
A
typically do not regard themselves as angry, oppositional or defiant
often justify their behaviour as a response to unreasonable demands or circumstances
21
Q
ODD is more common in which type of settings or families
A
more prevalent in families in which child care is disrupted by a succession of different caregivers
in families in which harsh, inconsistent or neglectful practices are common
22
Q
what are 2 of the most common co occurring conditions with ODD
A
ADHD
conduct disorder
23
Q
how does ODD affect risk of suicide
A
increases risk of suicide attempts
24
Q
what is the prevalence of ODD
A
ranges from 1-11%–> average around 3.3%
(slight male preponderance but overall fairly equal male:female)
25
when do first sx of ODD usually appear
during preschool years
rarely later in adolescence
26
ODD conveys risk for development of what other disorders in the future
CD
anxiety
MDD
--> defiant/argumentative + vindictive symptoms = higher risk for CD
--> angry/irritable mood sx = higher risk for emotional disorders
at increased risk of antisocial behaviour, impulse control problems, substance abuse, anxiety and depression as adults
27
what temperamental factors is felt to be predictive of ODD
problems in emotion regulation--> high levels of emotional reactivity, poor frustration tolerance
28
list neurobiological markers that have been associated with ODD
lower HR
lower skin conductance reactivity
reduced basal cortisol reactivity
abnormalities in prefrontal cortex and amygdala
*most studies have not separated ODD and CD kids and so its unclear how specific these markers are
29
ddx ODD
conduct disorder
ADHD
depressive d/o
bipolar d/o
DMDD
IED
intellectual disability
language disorder
social anxiety disorder
30
how does CD differ from ODD
CD = more intense than ODD, and involves aggression toward people or animals, destruction of property or a pattern of theft or deceit

31
how does IED differ from ODD
in IED, shows SERIOUS aggression towards other unlike in ODD

1. VERBAL AGGRESSION (temper tantrums, tirades, verbal arguments, or fights) or PHYSICAL AGGRESSION towards property, animals or other individuals, occurring TWICE WEEKLY on average for a period of THREE MONTHS. Physical aggression does not result in damage or destruction of property and does not result in physical injury to animals or other individuals
or
2. THREE behavioural outbursts involving DAMAGE or destruction of property and/or physical assault involving physical injury against animals or other individuals occurring within a 12 MONTH period
34
criterion B for IED
MAGNITUDE of the aggressiveness expressed during the recurrent outbursts is grossly OUT OF PROPORTION to the provocation or to any precipitating psychosocial stressors

44
what is an environmental risk factor for IED
ppl with hx physical and emotional trauma during FIRST TWO DECADES of life are at higher risk for IED
45
is there a genetic vulnerability to IED
yes--> first degree relatives of those with IED are at increased risk of having it themselves
twin studies--> "substantial genetic influence for impulsive aggression"
46

2. CALLOUS--lack of empathy--> disregards and is unconcerned about feelings of others; described as COLD and UNCARING; appears more concerned about effect of actions on themselves
3. UNCONCERNED about performance--> does not put forth effort necessary to do well, even when expectations are clear, and typically blames others for poor performance
4. SHALLOW or deficient affect--> does not express feelings or show emotions to others except in ways that seem shallow, insincere, superficial or when emotional expressions are used for gain
65
