Abstract

Background: The relationship between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant and conduct disorders (ODD/CD) requires further studies.

Methods: The aim was to examine the relationship among ADHD severity [assessed by ADHD Rating Scale-Parent Version (PV)], ADHD subtypes, and the comorbidity with ODD/CD in 217 Italian ADHD children.

Results: A total of 35.02% of the participants displayed ADHD with ODD, 14.29% ADHD with CD, and 50.69% no ODD/CD comorbid diagnosis. The Hyperactivity Score of the ADHD Rating Scale-PV was a significant predictor of ODD; age and the Hyperactivity Score were significant predictors of CD. The combined subtype was significantly higher in CD children.

Conclusions: Data, which confirm the only recent article on the topic, help to clarify the relationship between ADHD and externalizing disorders.
