Extract

La impulsividad es un aspecto fundamental de la conducta humana y una característica básica de múltiples trastornos como el Trastorno Bipolar, Trastornos de la Personalidad Límite y Antisocial, Trastornos relacionados con sustancias o Trastornos de la conducta alimentaria. Además, es responsable en gran medida de la morbilidad y mortalidad asociada a estos trastornos. Si bien la impulsividad se menciona como criterio diagnóstico de varias enfermedades en el DSM-IV, no hay un acuerdo definitivo en la definición de la conducta impulsiva, así como tampoco en su rol en las enfermedades mentales ni en sus sistemas de medida.
