Abstract

This chapter examines the prevalence and treatment of two of the most prevalent disruptive behavior disorders of childhood: Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD) in African American youth and associated health disparities among African American youth. We first discuss the prevalence of ODD and CD among children and adolescents in general. Second, we review the prevalence of ODD and CD in African American youth. Third, we present an overview of the DSM-V diagnostic criteria for ODD and CD. And fourth, we provide a section on treatment of ODD and CD in African American youth. Each section of this chapter includes pertinent empirical information on existing health disparities in the prevalence and treatment of ODD and CD for African American youth.
