What mental health diagnosis is most prevalent in children under age ten?
  1. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
  2. Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
  3. Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD)
  4. Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
Explanation
Answer - B - ADHD is still the leading diagnosed disorder in children, with boys four times more likely to receive the diagnosis than girls. The majority of children are not diagnosed with this disorder until school-age, most likely because of the greater confinements of sitting in a desk and paying attention for longer periods of time.
