Implication

Analysis reveals children with MDD exhibit more externalizing behaviors than those with anxiety, indicating key diagnostic markers.

Key Points

  • Children with MDD displayed higher aggression and conduct problems than those with anxiety, suggesting distinct behavioral patterns.
  • Statistical results showed MDD had significantly higher aggression scores (p = 0.009, d = 1.06) and conduct problems scores (p = 0.001, d = 1.26).
  • The analysis employed independent samples t-tests to assess behavior scores on the ASEBA and Conners' ratings, providing robust comparisons.
  • Identifying these externalizing symptoms is vital for improving diagnostic accuracy and guiding targeted interventions in pediatric mental health.
