TL;DR
The relation of anxiety to antisocial behavior was examined in 177 clinic-referred boys, aged 7 to 12 years, and as predicted by Gray's model, boys with CD and comorbid anxiety disorder were markedly less impaired than boys withCD alone.
Abstract
Jeffrey A. Gray has proposed a model in which conduct disorder (CD) is viewed as the result of both excessive activity of a behavioral activation system that mediates appetitive and aggressive behavior and deficient activity of a behavioral inhibition system that mediates both anxiety and the inhibition of behavior in the presence of cues signalling impending punishment or frustration. The relation of anxiety to antisocial behavior was examined in 177 clinic-referred boys, aged 7 to 12 years, 68 of whom met DSM-III-R criteria for CD. As predicted by Gray's model, boys with CD and comorbid anxiety disorder were markedly less impaired than boys with CD alone.

It is proposed that these drugs reduce anxiety by impairing the functioning of a widespread neural system including the septo-hippocampal system (SHS), the Papez circuit, the prefrontal cortex, and ascending monoaminergic and cholinergic pathways which innervate these forebrain structures.

The interrater reliability of DSM--III is, in general, higher than that previously achieved and may be due to changes in the classification itself, the separation of axis I from axis II conditions, the systematic description of the various disorders, and the inclusion of diagnostic criteria.

The DSM-III-R diagnosis of CD appears to be more valid as it is more strongly associated with police contacts, school suspensions, and history of antisocial personality disorder in the biological father, but both CD diagnoses are associated with family histories of criminal convictions.
