CONDUCT DISORDERS IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS

MUDr. Pavel Theiner Ph.D
Psychiatrická klinika LF MU a FN Brno

The synopsis deals with conduct disorders in children and adolescents. Recent definition and classification of these disorders is based on International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision. Conduct disorders often show certain developmental trend beginning in pre-school age and, in less favourable case, ending in antisocial personality disorder in adulthood. Individual conduct disorders have, however, different prognosis. Aggression is a basic symptom of conduct disorders and it is itself a psychological phenomenon in which different types can be distinguished. The aetiology of conduct disorders is complex, the sociocultural, psychological and biological factors play role. The treatment should be thus multimodal. Evidence-based pharmacotherapy is not available yet.

Keywords: conduct disorder, aggression
