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. The Oxford Handbook of Externalizing Spectrum Disorders
is the first book of its kind to capture the developmental
psychopathology of externalizing spectrum disorders by examining
causal factors across levels of analysis and developmental epochs,
while departing from the categorical perspective. 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
and environmental risk interactions in the expression of
externalizing behavior across the lifespan. The volume concludes
with an integrative, ontogenic process model of externalizing
psychopathology in which diverse equifinal and multifinal pathways
to disorder are specified.
