Answer to Question 1

 Genes and heredity  genetic connection; gene-by-environment interaction; children with ODD and CD are more likely to have parents or siblings with similar problems
 Physiological factors  brain imaging has demonstrated differences in brain structure and brain functioning; frontal lobe, amygdala, hypothalamus, HPA axis, neurotransmitter, and hormones (testosterone); connection to maternal smoking and substance abuse
 Child factors  neuropsychological, emotional, cognitive, temperament, and personality factors; high negative emotionality and problematic regulation; low emotionality; lower intelligence; language deficits; poor executive functioning; impaired social cognition
 Parent and family factors  parent characteristics such as genetic background, personality, and psychopathology; parenting attitudes and practices; relationship variables; parental depression; marital conflict; neglectful or indulgent parenting; poor monitoring
 Peer factors  difficulty forming relationships with prosocial peers; rejected children seek out other rejected peers; peer contagion
 Sociocultural factors  neighborhood factors have some influence but are also correlated with race or ethnicity; lack of economic resources; high-crime neighborhoods; delinquent peer groups
