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.

Wellness Conditions and Diagnoses Oppositional Defiant Disorder Related Services Psychiatry Psychology What is oppositional defiant disorder (ODD)? Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) is a behavior disorder, usually diagnosed in childhood, that is characterized by uncooperative, defiant, negativistic, irritable and annoying behaviors toward parents, peers, teachers and other authority figures. Children and adolescents with ODD are more distressing or troubling to others than they are distressed or troubled themselves. What causes oppositional defiant disorder? While the cause of ODD is not known, there are two primary theories offered to explain the development of ODD. A developmental theory suggests that the problems begin when children are toddlers. Children and adolescents who develop ODD may have had a difficult time learning to separate from their primary attachment figure and developing autonomous skills. The bad attitudes characteristic of ODD are viewed as a continuation of the normal developmental issues that were not adequately resolved during the toddler years. Learning theory suggests, however, that the negativistic characteristics of ODD are learned attitudes reflecting the effects of negative reinforcement techniques used by parents and authority figures. The use of negative reinforcements by parents is viewed as increasing the rate and intensity of oppositional behaviors in the child as it achieves the desired attention, time, concern, and interaction with parents or authority figures.

adders.org - Information Oppositional Defiant Disorder The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders World Health Organization, Geneva, 1992 F91.3 Oppositional Defiant Disorder Diagnostic Guidelines The essential feature of this disorder is a pattern of persistently negativistic, hostile, defiant, provocative, and disruptive behaviour, which is clearly outside the normal range of behaviour for a child of the same age in the same sociocultural context, and which does not include the more serious violations of the rights of others as reflected in the aggressive and dissocial behaviour specified for categories F91.0 and F91.2. Children with this disorder tend frequently and actively to defy adult requests or rules and deliberately to annoy other people. Usually they tend to be angry, resentful, and easily annoyed by other people whom they blame for their own mistakes or difficulties. They generally have a low frustration tolerance and readily lose their temper. Typically, their defiance has a provocative quality, so that they initiate confrontations and generally exhibit excessive levels of rudeness, uncooperativeness, and resistance to authority. Frequently, this behaviour is most evident in interactions with adults or peers whom the child knows well, and signs of the disorder may not be evident during a clinical interview.

Post to Art's bulletin board: click here and look for current Post Adoption Board Email this to a friend ODD - Oppositional Defiant Disorder Four year old Sarah throws temper tantrums, won't go to bed, refuses to take a bath, and is described by her parents as "hell on wheels." Peter, age seven, often won't go to school, refuses to take his dishes into the kitchen or perform other simple household chores, and screams when he doesn't get his way. Thirteen year old David refuses to listen to his parents. He stays up past his bed time, argues with his parents about everything, and stays out past his curfew. His parents are seriously considering bringing a PINS petition against him; they just don't know what to do. Do any of these children sound familiar? If so, you may be thinking of an oppositional and defiant child. We know from extensive research that non-compliant behaviors in children increase in severity over time. What are some of the other typical none compliant behaviors seen in children with ODD?

Kestenbaum, M.D. Q: My 10-year-old son, Jason, does nothing but yell "no" at anything I ask. He won't pick up clothes, help with chores, or do homework. He picks on his sister every time he gets the chance, and he's been suspended half a dozen times for fighting at school. The school is upset about his cursing and rudeness to teachers. His teachers say Jason is bright, maybe even brilliant, but he's become a tremendous problem this year. Sending him to the principal doesn't help. What should I do? A: Young children are oppositional from time to time. They may talk back to parents and teachers and occasionally strike out at peers. However, when openly uncooperative or aggressive behavior is strikingly different compared with other children of the same age and developmental level, it can be a cause for concern. The diagnostic term for this condition is oppositional defiant disorder (ODD). It would be prudent for Jason to have a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether he has this disorder or another, such as ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), a mild learning disability, a mood disorder such as depression, or an anxiety disorder.
