About this course
Children tend to yell, hit, and take things they want until they begin to mature and learn to better manage their impulsive emotions and behaviours. Some children, however, grow into adolescents and adults who are unable to do this, breaking rules, lying, stealing, or physically harming others. The common difficulty shared in these behaviors - the inability to resist impulses - is the subject of this course. Beginning with an explanation of the equivalent DSM-5 and ICD-10 coding for the various disorders found in this category, the program goes on to describe the symptoms and requirements for diagnosis of oppositional defiant disorder, intermittent explosive disorder, conduct disorder, antisocial personality disorder, pyromania, and kleptomania.
