Abstract
BACKGROUND: The goal of this study is to investigate differences in executive function (EF) in children with different levels of disruptive behavior problems (DBP).
METHODS: Ninety-three children between 7 and 12 years old with DBP were compared to 63 normally developing peers on a battery of EF tasks that varied in the amount of required emotion regulation ('hot' EF).
