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 recognizing emotion (happiness, anger, sadness and fear) through a go/no-go task in children with different levels of ODD and CU traits.
