TL;DR
Empirical findings on oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and conduct disorder (CD) suggest that symptoms that are more serious, more atypical for the child's sex, or more age-atypical appear to be prognostic of serious dysfunction.
Abstract
Although major advances in the study of the prevalence and course of ODD and CD have occurred in the past decade, some key issues remain unanswered.
