| Sumario: | Recent developments in the conceptualization of externalizing spectrum disorders, including attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, conduct disorder, antisocial personality disorder, and substance use disorders, suggest common genetic and neural substrates. Despite this, neither shared vulnerabilities nor their implications for developmental models of externalizing conduct are captured by prevailing nosologic and diagnostic systems such as the DSM-5. In the Oxford Handbook of Externalizing Spectrum Disorders, world-renowned experts on externalizing psychopathology demonstrate how shared genetic and neural vulnerabilities predispose to trait impulsivity, a highly heritable personality construct that is often shaped by adverse environments into increasingly intractable forms of externalizing conduct across development. Consistent with contemporary models of almost all forms of psychopathology, the Handbook emphasizes the importance of neurobiological vulnerability × environmental risk interactions in the expression of externalizing behavior across the life span. Furthermore, consistent with objectives of the Research Domain Criteria, which are currently being developed by the National Institute of Mental Health, chapters address causal influences across all relevant levels of analysis, including molecular genetic, behavioral genetic, hormonal, neural, family, peer, and neighborhood. The Handbook concludes with an integrative, ontogenic process model of externalizing psychopathology in which diverse equifinal and multifinal pathways to disorder are specified. |
