Northeastern Illinois University
Lutheran General Hospital Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) affects and is affected by the families, school systems, social services systems, medical systems, lawenforcement, communities, and those individuals exhibiting and classified as having this problem. The treatments of ODD are many and varied, leaving one wondering at the cause and treatment options. The prevalence of ODD is examined in this article, the various models of treatment are reviewed, and an integrated family systems strength-based model is presented. In keeping with suggestions for family systems meta research, the models parts have proven track records of producing positive outcomes with ODD children and their families. It is postulated that the effect of placing these parts together will have a synergistic and cumulative effect of treatment, increasing positive outcome with this population.
