Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This paper examines the definitions and characteristics of Disruptive Behavior Disorders (DBD), Juvenile Delinquency (JD), and Disability-Mediated Offending (DMO) and compares them across multiple analytical lenses including science, psychology, sociology, disability studies and special education, history, and jurisprudence. By clarifying these distinctions, the paper aims to promote better understanding of the three terms among the professionals in terms of providing more accurate assessment and more humane responses to youth behavioral problems.
