abstract="Recent research has identified a group of children displaying patterns of comorbidity with conduct and hyperactivity-impulsivity-inattention problems or, more succinctly, antisocial behavior with hyperactivity (ABH). These children are at a heightened risk for negative outcomes including school dropout, academic underachievement, social rejection, and criminality relative to those children with only conduct or attention problems. The intent of this paper is to examine the extent to which risk-status membership at the upper elementary level can be differentiated by the social and academic profiles of students in the lower elementary level. Three groups of fifth-grade students classified as either At-Risk + ABH (n = 35), At-Risk Only (n = 34), or Controls (n = 35) were contrasted on protective and risk factors from third-grade using multivariate analyses. Seven of the eight variables used in this study predicted group membership. Cross-validated discriminant classification analyses showed 82.86% and 88.24% correct classification of the At-Risk and ABH groups, respectively, relative to Controls. Classification rates were slightly lower when contrasting At-Risk + ABH and At-Risk Only groups. Limitations and directions for future research were discussed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
