home resource directory disorders quizzes ... support forums Oppositional Defiant Disorder TREATMENT Table of Contents Psychotherapy Medications Self-Help Psychotherapy The central focus of therapy with oppositional defiant disorder is usually behavioral, implemented through parent training. The parent training can often be done in a group setting (to help reduce costs and increase social support) and is often as or more effective as family therapy, conducted with the parents and child. In these courses, which are very psychoeducational in nature, parents learn specific behavioral techniques which help increase the likelihood of maintaining control in the relationship with the child. Gradual shaping of the child's behavior toward more age-appropriate behaviors is accomplished through the implementation of a behavioral monitoring and reward program. The alternative method of treatment, family therapy, can be as effective in some cases, as parent training. But because it is usually more expensive and can focus heavily on the child's behavior and causative factors, it may not be appropriate for all families. Parents will usually find that a parent training class to be more effective as well as less expensive; it therefore should usually be tried first before family therapy. Medications Very little research has been conducted in the use of medications for oppositional defiant disorder. Therefore, medication is not recommended as a treatment option for this problem.

Go To Main Page Definition Oppositional defiant disorder is a pattern of disobedient, hostile, and defiant behavior towards authority figures. The pattern must persist for at least six months and must go beyond the bounds of normal childhood misbehavior. This disorder is more prevalent in boys than girls. Some studies have found that as much as 20% of the school age population are affected, but most experts believe this figure is over-inflated due to changing cultural definitions of normal childhood behavior and other possible racial, cultural, and gender biases. The onset typically begins by age 8. The cause of this disorder is unknown, and may be due to a combination of biology and parenting or environmental factors.

Main Search Index Definition Description Causes ... Resources Oppositional defiant disorder Definition Oppositional defiant disorder is a recurring pattern of negative, hostile, disobedient, and defiant behavior in a child or adolescent, lasting for at least six months without serious violation of the basic rights of others. Description The behavior disturbances cause clinically significant problems in social, school, or work functioning. The course of oppositional defiant disorder varies among patients. In males, the disorder is more common among those who had problem temperaments or high motor activity in the preschool years. During the school years, patients may have low self-esteem, changing moods, and a low frustration tolerance. Patients may swear and use alcohol, tobacco, or illicit drugs at an early age. There are often conflicts with parents, teachers, and peers. Children with this disorder show their negative and defiant behaviors by being persistently stubborn and resisting directions. They may be unwilling to compromise, give in, or negotiate with adults. Patients may deliberately or persistently test limits, ignore orders, argue, and fail to accept blame for misdeeds. Hostility is directed at adults or peers and is shown by verbal aggression or deliberately annoying others. Oppositional defiant disorder is more common in boys than girls and the disorder typically begins by age eight. Although the specific causes of the disorder are unknown, parents who are overly concerned with power and control may cause an eruption to occur. Symptoms often appear at home, but over time may appear in other settings as well. Usually the disorder occurs gradually over months or years. Several theories about the causes of oppositional defiant disorder are being investigated. Oppositional defiant disorder may be related to:
