The psychiatric-mental health nurse explains that no medications are FDA-approved specifically for oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, or intermittent explosive disorder, but pharmacotherapy may target associated symptoms to improve responsiveness to therapy.Which statements by the nurse accurately reflect evidence-based biological treatment principles for impulse control disorders?Select all that apply.

The caregiver reports that the client appears "unbothered" by punishment, seeks high-intensity stimulation, and shows little physiological distress during disciplinary encounters. Structural MRI previously demonstrated reduced gray matter density in the left prefrontal cortex. Resting heart rate has consistently been low.Based on current understanding of risk factors for oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), which interpretation best integrates the biological, physiological, and behavioral findings?
