Overview of Recommendations for Evidence-Based Assessment and Demographic Information

[edit]

Overview of Multistage Strategy for Evidence-Based Assessment of Conduct Problems (adapted from McMahon and Frick, 2005; 2007)

[edit]

Stage 1:

  • Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessments (ASEBA): Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Teacher Report Form (TRF), Youth Self-Report (YSR)
    • Used to broadly identify behaviors relevant to Oppositional Defiant Disorder
  • Eyberg Child Behavior Inventory (ECBI)
    • Helps screen for overt and covert conduct problems


Stage 2:

  • Structured Diagnostic Interview
  • Standardized intelligence test and academic achievement screener
  • Developmental and medical history obtained through clinical interview
  • Observational analogues, including parent-child interactions – examples:
    • Child’s Game
    • Parent’s Game
    • Clean Up
  • Parent observation measures
    • E.g., Parent Daily Report
  • Level of functional impairment or adaptive disability determined through interviews or ratings
    • E.g., Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale
  • Age of onset of conduct problems established through clinical or structured interviews with parent or youth
    • Helps determine developmental pathway (see Moffitt’s (1993) seminal article “Adolescent-limited and life-course persistent antisocial behavior: A developmental taxonomy”), which has implications for the “three P’s”
    • Helps determine temporal ordering of potential comorbid disorders (e.g., did anxiety problems precede conduct problems, or vice-versa?), which also has implications for “three P’s”


Stage 3:

  • Broader social and environmental context should be assessed.
    • E.g., Neighborhood Questionnaire, Community Interaction Checklist, Things I Have Seen and Heard
  • Assessment of social informational processing could yield important information relevant to the “three P’s”
    • E.g., Intention-Cue Detection Task
  • Parental/personal adjustment assessment to assess for familial risk factors
    • E.g., Antisocial Behavior Checklist
  • Further assessments specific to the symptomatology of the child or adolescent should be conducted
    • E.g., assessments specific to fire-setting behaviors

Additional notes:

  • Covert conduct problem behaviors are difficult to assess, and the clinical utility of some innovative observational paradigms needs to be demonstrated.
  • McMahon & Frick (2005) point to the “recent proliferation of research concerning girls and CP (p. 496) and suggest that this emerging research “should facilitate the development of evidence-based guidelines that are applicable to girls in the near future.” For the time being, they recommend following the same guidelines for girls as for boys, with the addition of a measure of relational aggression in girls.

Mash and Barkley (2003) note that prevalence rates of ODD must be qualified, because the definition of ODD has changed at a fast rate, the rates adolescents meeting criteria in any cross-sectional evaluation may be misleading because of the developmental progressions with and between ODD and Conduct Disorder, and categorical definitions of aggressive patterns may reflect arbitrary numbers of constituent estimates. These factors may lead to misleading prevalence rates. In addition, few studies have investigated the prevalence of ODD in preschool-aged children, and early onset of these behaviors is associated with more severe and stable impairment.

Diagnosis

[edit]
[edit]

″The Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview for Children″ (MINI-Kids)-available at the Finely Clinic and ″the Kiddie-Sads-Present and Lifetime Version″ (K-SADS-PL) – 2009 Working Draft available for free online at: http://www.psychiatry.pitt.edu/sites/default/files/Documents/assessments/ksads-pl.pdf. See page 38. Appendix 1 provides DSM-IV and DSM-5 criteria for diagnosis of Oppositional Defiant Disorder.

Screening Instruments

[edit]

Table 2 provides diagnostic efficiency information for the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL; Achenbach, 1991; hardcopy and scoring system available at the Finley Clinic); the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ; Goodman, 1997); see http://www.sdqinfo.com/ to access the questionnaire and scoring information; and the Eyberg Child Behavior Index (ECBI; Eyberg & Robinson, 1983). Appendix 2 includes a copy of the Eyberg Child Behavior Checklist (Eyberg & Robinson, 1983).

“LR+” refers to the change in likelihood ratio associated with a positive test score, and “LR-” is the likelihood ratio for a low score. Likelihood ratios of 1 indicate that the test result did not change impressions at all. LRs larger than 10 or smaller than .10 are frequently clinically decisive; 5 or .20 are helpful, and between 2.0 and .5 are small enough that they rarely result in clinically meaningful changes of formulation (Sackett et al., 2000).


Searches (specified below) did not yield any data about sensitivity, specificity, AUC, or ROC for the Externalizing scale of the CBCL. Searches also did not yield data about TRF or YSR scales for Aggression or Externalizing: Achenbach and Rescorla (2001) provide data about clinically referred vs. non-referred samples but not about samples with oppositional disorder specifically; thus, only AUC and LRs for the Aggression scale are reported. In addition, searches did not yield any information on the AUC for Oppositional Defiant Disorder, however, there are studies looking at the AUC for the SDQ at differentiating clinical from non-clinical samples. Also, there was no information on the Problem Scale of the ECBI, and no information on the AUC for the ECBI.


* This study was a meta-analysis of 29 studies looking at the CBCL and 3 studies looking at the SDQ.

Treatment

[edit]

Behavioral Parent Training

[edit]

Behavioral Parent Training is considered the most effective treatment for childhood disruptive behavior disorders (e.g., Oppositional Defiant Disorder), especially for younger children (i.e., 3-8 year-olds). See http://effectivechildtherapy.com/content/disruptive-behavior-problems-odd-cd, a website sponsored by The Society for Child and Adolescent Psychology (APA, Division 53) and the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (ABCT), for current summary of evidence-based treatments.
