Abstract :
The aim of the present study was to compare the executive functions of children with disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) with an emphasis on response inhibition, organization, and decision-making/planning with healthy peers. The current study was a descriptive and causal-comparative study, and our statistical population included all children with DMDD and normal children in Tabriz between the ages of 8-12 years. With the cooperation of one of the psychological clinics, after screening by clinical diagnostic interview based on DSM-5, 30 children with disruptive mood dysregulation disorder were selected by available sampling. A number of 30 normal children were matched with the patient group by random sampling in terms of age and gender. The data was obtained with the Coolidge neuropsychological and personality scale, a parent-as-respondent assessment tool. Multivariate analysis of variance test was used to analyze the data and the results showed that the two groups differ significantly from each other in terms of all three components of executive function. In other words, compared to children with DMDD, normal children suffer less from problems related to executive functions in the areas of response inhibition, organization, and decision-making/planning. The findings of the present study have significant research and clinical implications regarding the role of DMDD in the destruction of executive function, as well as the need to formulate and apply therapeutic methods focused on executive function defects in this group.
