The correct answer is: Angry/ irritable mood, Argumentative/ defiant behavior, Vindictiveness

Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is a condition commonly found in children and adolescents, which is characterized by angry/irritable mood, argumentative/defiant behavior, and vindictiveness. This set of behaviors can significantly impact daily functioning and relationships. Option B, anxiety, depression, and manic phases, are symptoms of other mental health disorders and are not associated with ODD. Option C, obsessiveness, compulsiveness, and avoidance, are characteristics of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a separate disorder from ODD. Option D, introversion, extraversion, and ambiversion, are personality traits and are not related to ODD.
