SNHU Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder Diagnosis Analysis

 

I need support with this Psychology question so I can learn better.

As counselors, we may see a client diagnosis shift over time as new events occur. This means that we may need to update or change a client’s diagnosis.

Considering disruptive, impulse-control, and conduct disorders, identify how a diagnosis of oppositional defiant disorder would transition to a diagnosis of conduct disorder. Remember to take into consideration the development and course section of each disorder in the DSM-5. How might factors in the life of a client alter a diagnosis as you work them? Think about factors such as environment, culture, and biological changes.
