symptoms & associated impairment
◼ PI has less difficulty with behavioral self-
inhibition/self-control and emotional self-regulation
◼ PI has less comorbidity with externalizing disorders
(ODD, CD etc.); equal comorbidity with internalizing
◼ PI more likely to have slow processing speed and
features of SCT
◼ PI and CB have correspondingly different types of
social difficulties
◼ Children with PI/CB may differ in response to
stimulants, but not to BT or CBT in children or adults
