Final answer:

Tristen displays the aggressive type of conduct disorder characterized by physical aggression, confrontational demeanor, and lack of respect for authority.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tristen is displaying behaviors that are characteristic of a type of conduct disorder. In conduct disorder, individuals often exhibit a pattern of behavior where they violate the rights of others or major societal norms.

Tristen's actions such as being openly aggressive, frequently engaging in physical fights, showing no respect for authority, and being confrontational are indicative of the more severe and aggressive manifestation of conduct disorder.

Typically, this type of conduct disorder involves more physically harmful behaviors rather than just deceitful or rule-breaking behavior which is less aggressive.
