Large Brain Study Links Youth Conduct Problems to Widespread Structural Differences
Key Takeaways
- Researchers analyzed brain data from more than 14,000 children and adolescents.
- Greater conduct problems were associated with thinner or smaller cortical measures and differences in subcortical regions.
- The pattern appeared across a continuum of severity, not only in diagnosed conduct disorder.
- The findings support earlier and more tailored intervention models rather than diagnosis-only frameworks.
