Aidan Wright Hate to be a contrarian, but I've never found the construct "personality" to be useful in our work on preventing mental disorders in youth. Perhaps, it's a semantic thing.

Aidan Wright oh for sure, very interesting questions, and the science is fascinating. but think of patterson's work. we know kids bring a lot to the equation of who will develop conduct disorder. at the end of the day, the interventions focus on changing adult behavior at home and school.

We are excited to be able to offer free access to our universal screener and support system tinyurl.com/4ufyyrxw. If you are from a rural school in MO, MT, VA, or SC and want to learn more, msg us here or email [email protected]
