“…Dekker and Koot (2003) found that twice as many children with ID and an anxiety disorder also met criteria for one or more co-occurring disruptive behavior disorders (42.5 %; i.e., ADHD, ODD, and conduct disorder), compared to typically developing children with anxiety disorders (20.6-20.9 %; e.g., Fleitlich-Bilyk and Goodman 2004). Green et al (2014) also found significantly higher odds of children with ID meeting clinical significance for both anxiety and inattentive/hyperactive symptoms, in particular, and externalizing problems, overall. These odds proved to be above chance levels (at least twice the frequency as expected by chance), given the higher rates of clinical levels of anxiety and other psychiatric symptoms in this population, and may result in higher levels of impairment among these children.…”
