Attention to Emotion through a Go/no-Go Task in Children with Oppositionality and Callous-Unemotional Traits

There is debate about whether the difficulties that children with different degrees of oppositionality (ODD) and callous-unemotional traits (CU) have in processing emotions are global or specific. The aim of this study is to identify difficulties in recognising emotion (happiness, anger, sadness and fear) through a go/no-go task in children with different levels of ODD and CU traits.
