Abstract

Irritable mood has recently become a matter of intense scientific interest.

The US sample (n = 218) consisted of children and adolescents recruited at the National Institute of Mental Health meeting criteria for bipolar disorder (BD, n = 39), severe mood dysregulation (SMD, n = 67), children at family risk for BD (n = 35), or were healthy volunteers (n = 77).

In the UK sample, parent-rated irritability was differentially related to emot...Continue Reading
