A conceptual
model describing the environmental factors and parent and child
characteristics that contribute to the development of conduct disorder
in early childhood is proposed. Environmental stressors associated
with poverty, poor parenting strategies, and child deficits in communication
skills are posited to be negative factors that affect parent-child
interactions. A multicomponent approach to prevention is suggested.
