What Is Oppositional Defiant Behavior?

 

What Type of Assessment is Needed?

Symptoms of ODD may include being argumentative, overall irritable with a negative attitude, being uncooperative on purpose, and having major issues with rules and authority figures. A comprehensive evaluation is critical because there may be other disorders present such as ADHD, Learning Disabilities, Mood disorders, anxiety disorders. Some children may later develop conduct disorders. This white paper reviews the need for a comprehensive evaluation, provides key points for school personnel, and the role of the functional assessment.
