Core diagnostic criteria, specifiers, differential considerations, and documentation support in one open, scan-friendly view.
All criteria are shown. No expand controls or hidden sections.
Core criterion A
Symptoms characteristic of a disruptive, impulse-control, or conduct disorder causing clinically significant distress/impairment
Core criterion B
Does not meet full criteria for any specific disorder in this class
Core criterion C
Clinician specifies reason (Other Specified) or chooses not to specify (Unspecified)
Consistent with [Other Specified Disruptive, Impulse-Control, and Conduct Disorder] [specifier(s)]. Over a persistent period, there has been a pattern of recurrent failures to control aggressive impulses; impulsive aggressive outbursts; serious violations of rules or societal norms; behavioural dysregulation causing harm, that resembles a disruptive, impulse-control, or conduct disorder but does not fully meet structured criteria for any specific disorder, due to atypical symptom number, duration, age at onset, or contextual features. The presentation is further characterised by clinically meaningful impulsivity or aggression that is not developmentally appropriate and not limited to a single situation. These symptoms have resulted in clinically significant distress or impairment in social, academic, occupational, interpersonal, or legal functioning, and are not better explained by substance intoxication, a mood or psychotic disorder, a neurodevelopmental disorder, or behaviour that is culturally sanctioned.
