Analysis of ODD–DESR overlap among ADHD probands. The study reports "past oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) was significantly associated (p<0.01) with extreme (>95th percentile of control subjects) DESR scores, and current ODD was not," with 71.4% of current-ODD and 69.4% of past-ODD probands showing extreme DESR.
"Among ADHD probands, past oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) was significantly associated (p<0.01) with extreme (>95th percentile of control subjects) DESR scores, and current ODD was not; 71.4 % of ADHD probands with current ODD, and 69.4 % of ADHD probands with past ODD had extreme DESR scores."
