Abstract
The disruptive behavior disorders are usually first evident in childhood or adolescence. They include attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), conduct disorders, and oppositional defiant disorder. A separate chapter in the book is devoted to ADHD, so it will not be covered here except in relation to the other disorders. A separate section at the conclusion of this chapter deals with impulse control disorders, violence, and emergency treatment.
