Conduct Disorder01:28

Conduct Disorder

741
Conduct disorder is a complex mental health diagnosis characterized by a repetitive and persistent pattern of behavior that violates societal norms, the rights of others, or age-appropriate rules. The diagnostic criteria for conduct disorder require the presence of at least three problematic behaviors within the past 12 months, with at least one occurring in the past six months. These behaviors are grouped into four categories: aggression toward people and animals; destruction of property;...

Bullying

8.9K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

A persistent pattern of angry or irritable mood, defiant behavior, or vindictiveness characterizes Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). Symptoms must occur over at least six months, involve interactions with individuals beyond siblings, and meet specific diagnostic criteria to be clinically significant. The disorder affects emotional regulation, social interactions, and behavior, often manifesting early in life and influencing long-term development and functioning.

Cognitive Dissonance

37.7K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

1.2K
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....

Behavior Modification01:21

Behavior Modification

832
Behavioral approaches have often been criticized for ignoring mental processes and focusing solely on observable behavior. However, these approaches provide an optimistic perspective for individuals seeking to change their behaviors. Rather than concentrating on intrinsic personality traits, behavioral approaches suggest that even longstanding habits can be modified by changing the reward contingencies that maintain them.
A real-world application of operant conditioning principles is applied...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Child Psychology
  • Environmental Stressors

Background:

  • A 10-year-old, previously healthy and socially engaged boy, experienced a significant change in his classroom environment.
  • A new student's disruptive and abusive behavior created a tense atmosphere, impacting classmates.

Observation:

  • The patient developed new-onset nightmares, enuresis (bedwetting), and trichotillomania (hair pulling) over 3-4 months.
  • The hair pulling, initially unconscious and later found to be relaxing, caused distress and embarrassment.
  • A family history of anxiety was noted in both parents.

Findings:

  • Despite psychological intervention showing mild improvement in enuresis, trichotillomania persisted and worsened.
  • The patient's symptoms appear linked to the stressful classroom environment and the disruptive behavior of a peer.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the impact of environmental stressors and peer behavior on a child's mental and physical health.
  • Further investigation and intervention strategies are needed to address the persistent trichotillomania and its underlying causes.
