CONCLUSIONS: The findings for males support an influential neurocognitive model of CD. However, the association between CU traits and brain response to facial expressions differed in females and males with CD, suggesting distinct pathophysiological processes.

Neuroimaging studies suggest that resilience to adversity is linked to reduced emotional reactivity or enhanced emotion regulation. However, such studies are scarce and mainly use adult samples and categorical definitions of resilience. Using a novel, data-driven approach to define resilience dimensionally, based on cumulative adversity exposure across childhood and psychopathology, we investigated associations between resilience and brain activation during facial emotion processing in youth. We...

CONCLUSION: This review provides insights into barriers and facilitators of modality change adoption, which could inform the development and implementation of virtual mental healthcare services and may help optimize the application of these services by improving our understanding and ability to overcome barriers influencing their adoption.

BACKGROUND: Conduct disorder is associated with the highest burden of any mental disorder in childhood, yet its neurobiology remains unclear. Inconsistent findings limit our understanding of the role of brain structure alterations in conduct disorder. This study aims to identify the most robust and replicable brain structural correlates of conduct disorder.

Conduct disorder (CD) is characterised by persistent antisocial and aggressive behaviour and typically emerges in childhood or adolescence. Although several authors have proposed that CD is a neurodevelopmental disorder, very little evidence is available about brain development in this condition. Structural brain alterations have been observed in CD, and some indirect evidence for delayed brain maturation has been reported. However, no detailed analysis of age-related changes in brain structure...
