Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aggressive behavior among children and adolescents has confounded parents and perplexed professionals—especially those tasked with its treatment and prevention—for countless years. As baffling as these behaviors are, however, recent advances in neuroscience focusing on brain development have helped to make increasing sense of their complexity. Focusing on their most prevalent forms, Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder, Disruptive Behavior Disorders advances the understanding of DBD on a number of significant fronts. Its neurodevelopmental emphasis within an ecological approach offers links between brain structure and function and critical environmental influences and the development of these specific disorders. The book's findings and theories help to differentiate DBD within the contexts of normal development, non-pathological misbehavior and non-DBD forms of pathology. Throughout these chapters are myriad implications for accurate identification, effective intervention and future cross-disciplinary study. Key issues covered include: Gene-environment interaction models. Neurobiological processes and brain functions. Callous-unemotional traits and developmental pathways. Relationships between gender and DBD. Multiple pathways of familial transmission. Disruptive Behavior Disorders is a groundbreaking resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners and graduate students in clinical child and school psychology, psychiatry, educational psychology, prevention science, child mental health care, developmental psychology and social work.

Book excerpt: Children living in poverty are more likely to have mental health problems, and their conditions are more likely to be severe. Of the approximately 1.3 million children who were recipients of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) disability benefits in 2013, about 50% were disabled primarily due to a mental disorder. An increase in the number of children who are recipients of SSI benefits due to mental disorders has been observed through several decades of the program beginning in 1985 and continuing through 2010. Nevertheless, less than 1% of children in the United States are recipients of SSI disability benefits for a mental disorder. At the request of the Social Security Administration, Mental Disorders and Disability Among Low-Income Children compares national trends in the number of children with mental disorders with the trends in the number of children receiving benefits from the SSI program, and describes the possible factors that may contribute to any differences between the two groups. This report provides an overview of the current status of the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders, and the levels of impairment in the U.S. population under age 18. The report focuses on 6 mental disorders, chosen due to their prevalence and the severity of disability attributed to those disorders within the SSI disability program: attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, oppositional defiant disorder/conduct disorder, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, learning disabilities, and mood disorders. While this report is not a comprehensive discussion of these disorders, Mental Disorders and Disability Among Low-Income Children provides the best currently available information regarding demographics, diagnosis, treatment, and expectations for the disorder time course - both the natural course and under treatment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children and adolescents deemed "out of control" by parents and educators are among the most commonly referred for professional care. Increased professional and public interest in these children has sparked a proliferation of research focusing on etiologic, diagnostic, and research issues of disruptive behavior disorders. Accordingly, the empirical knowledge base has grown rapidly in richness and complexity. Bringing clinical practice up to date with these many new advances in an unusually accessible format, DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR DISORDERS IN CHILDREN presents a practical, psychometrically sound, treatment-relevant method of assessment that reflects the state of the art. The book opens with detailed descriptions of the Disruptive Behavior Disorders that encompass the DSM-III-R subtypes of Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Conduct and Oppositional Defiant Disorders. For easy reference, the following four chapters separately cover interviews, evaluation, treatment, and integrating assessment. Offering valuable explication of the interview process, one chapter covers the parent-child interview, clinical interview, and the categories and rationale for inclusion. Evaluation procedures are discussed in a chapter that evaluates parent, family, and teacher questionnaires, as well as self-report, laboratory measurements, and direct observation. The chapter on treatment options addresses such topics as education, pharmacological management, parent training, cognitive-behavioral self-control training, and family systems therapy. Using illustrative case examples, the chapter on integrating assessment outlines a functional assessment protocol, and describes how to: establish and monitor drug efficacy; select and implement psychosocial interventions; and choose appropriate educational interventions. Providing the interdisciplinary professional community with proven, practical, and useful assessment strategies for these too commonly encountered problems, DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR DISORDERS IN CHILDREN is an invaluable resource for a wide array of practitioners. With its user-friendly format, clinicians who provide services to children and adolescents who suffer from these disorders will want to keep it close at hand.
