Understanding the Neuropsychology of Disruptive and Externalizing Disorders in Children
Abstract
Children tend to express their thoughts and emotions primarily through their behavior. At times, children's behavior may be problematic, characterized by disruptions, restlessness, and impulsive actions which may lead to behavioural problems. While it is normal for children to exhibit some degree of problem behavior, the intensity and severity can have significant impact on their overall development. Children with “high risk” for externalizing disorders like conduct problems, oppositional behavior, or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), exhibit unique brain activity patterns. This book chapter would thus aim to explore the distinct neuropsychological correlates of externalizing disorders and identify commonalities and differences. The chapter will also elaborate on various therapeutic interventions and strategies that can be applicable in managing this condition. Gaining an understanding of neuropsychological mechanisms that contribute to externalizing disorders can lead to more effective and targeted interventions to support children's development and well-being.
