To evaluate the association between the clinical scales of the child behavior checklist (CBCL) and the comorbid diagnosis of oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) in a large sample of youth with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
The sample consisted of 101 girls and 106 boys ages 6 to17 with ADHD. Conditional probability analysis was used to examine the correspondence between CBCL Clinical Scales with the structured-interview derived diagnosis of ODD.
Conditional probability analysis showed that the CBCL Aggression Scale best predicted a structured-interview derived diagnosis of ODD in boys and girls with ADHD.
These findings suggest that the CBCL Aggression Scale could serve as a rapid and cost-effective screening instrument to help identify cases likely to meet clinical criteria for ODD in the context of ADHD
在大量注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)青少年样本中,评估儿童行为量表(CBCL)的临床量表与对立违抗性障碍(ODD)共病诊断之间的关联。
样本包括101名6至17岁患有ADHD的女孩和106名患有ADHD的男孩。采用条件概率分析来检验CBCL临床量表与通过结构化访谈得出的ODD诊断之间的对应关系。
条件概率分析表明,CBCL攻击量表最能预测患有ADHD的男孩和女孩通过结构化访谈得出的ODD诊断。
这些发现表明,CBCL攻击量表可作为一种快速且经济高效的筛查工具,有助于识别在ADHD背景下可能符合ODD临床标准的病例。
