Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Description comes directly from the textbook.

These disorders are characterized by socially unacceptable or otherwise disruptive and harmful behaviors that are outside of the individuals control. Generally, more common in males than in females, and often first seen in childhood, they include oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, intermittent explosive disorder, antisocial personality disorder (which is also coded in the category of personality disorders), kleptomania, and pyromania.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Description comes directly from the textbook.

Formerly termed, gender identity disorder, this category includes those individuals who experience significant distress with the sex they were born and with associated gender roles. This diagnosis has been separated from the category of sexual disorders, as it is now accepted that gender dysphoria does not relate to a persons sexual attractions.
