Disruptive Behaviors behind the Mask: Pediatric Craniofacial Anomalies

We investigated the correlation between craniofacial anomalies and disruptive behavior disorders (DBDs) in pediatric patients using archival data from UI Health Craniofacial Center. Analysis of 150 participants (Mage = 10) revealed significant links between craniofacial conditions and elevated externalizing behavior problems, underscoring the need for specialized psychosocial interventions.
