I have to write a paper for my Abnormal Psychology class for my bachelor's program. It's about conduct disorder in children, but I need a specific topic to write about. Can you give me three ideas for topics? Include a 1-3 sentence explanation of each topic and why it's important. Each one needs to have a research study to back it up. 
Here are three ideas you can write about: 

1. The role of media in conduct disorder. Children who are exposed to violence in movies, tv shows, and video games are more likely to engage in these behaviors themselves. A 2010 analytic review of 136 studies, published in Psychological Bulletin, showed that exposure to violent media is associated with increased aggression, decreased empathy, and decreased prosocial behavior, all of which are risk factors for conduct disorder. 

2. The causes of conduct disorder. There has been much research on the role of both genetics and environment in conduct disorder. In a 2018 article published in Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, the authors review research on gene-environment interactions. They conclude that there are a number of genes that have been linked to conduct disorder, but the effects of these genes aren't always clear. They also note that various environmental factors have been linked to conduct disorder. 

3. The prognosis of children with conduct disorder. A 1999 article published in the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry examined the long-term outcome of children and adolescents with conduct disorder. The authors found that with early intervention and treatment, children with conduct disorder can grow up to be happy and productive.
