As for ODD, studies have shown, as early as preschool age, that, compared to children with low levels of CU traits and ODD, those with higher levels of CU traits have more severe ODD problems, showing deficits in
processing emotional stimuli, such as
fearful faces, having lower levels of fearfulness and anxiety, manifesting insensitivity to punishment and displaying physiological hypoarousal, such as low stress reaction — lower heart rate at rest and during reactivity to emotional stimuli (Fanti, 2016).

processing of
fearful faces comes from neurological studies of older children having CU traits, that report reduced amygdala activation while
processing fearful, but not angry
faces, as compared to typical child samples (Marsh and Blair, 2008).
