Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

The key characteristics of oppositional defiant disorder are persistent negativism, disobedience, and hostile behavior toward authority figures. This pattern must last at least six months and usually begins by age 8. Conduct disorder involves many of the same behaviors but usually has its onset in middle childhood or later. While some children who have oppositional defiant disorder go on to develop conduct disorder, virtually every child with conduct disorder had oppositional defiant disorder earlier in life.
