Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a school-age child who recently loaded a virus onto their teacher's computer after receiving a poor grade on a science project. The child's guardian tells the nurse their child often bullies the other kids at school. Which of the following diagnoses should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale:
Correct Answer: D - Conduct disorder (C
D)


Rationale:
1. Conduct disorder involves a pattern of behavior that violates the basic rights of others or societal norms.
2. The child's actions of loading a virus onto the teacher's computer and bullying classmates indicate a disregard for rules and the well-being of others.
3. Conduct disorder commonly presents with aggression, deceitfulness, and violation of rules.
4. These behaviors are more severe than those seen in Oppositional Defiant Disorder (
A) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (
B).
5. Intermittent Explosive Disorder (
C) typically involves impulsive aggression, not premeditated actions like intentionally loading a virus.
6. Conduct disorder is the most appropriate diagnosis considering the child's behavior towards others.

Summary:
- A: Oppositional Defiant Disorder - less severe, lacks the pattern of aggression seen in the child's behavior.
- B: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - does not fully capture the intentional harmful behavior
