Assessment of obsessive-compulsive disorder in youth using parent and youth rating scalesJanzen, Laura Ann 05 July 2018 (has links)
This study compared a parent-report measure of childhood OCD symptoms, the survey form of the Leyton Obsessional Inventory - Parent Version (SLOI-PV), with a youth self-report measure, the survey form of the Leyton Obsessional Inventory - Child Version (SLOI-CV); specifically, the psychometric properties of the scales were examined, along with their efficacy in discriminating youth with OCD symptoms from other clinically-referred and normal youth. Participants were 72 youth-parent pairs. Youth ranged from 9 to 18 years of age; 31 youth were diagnosed with OCD or obsessive-compulsive behaviours (OCB), 11 youth were clinical controls and 30 were normal controls. The psychometric properties of the SLOI-PV and SLOI-CV were adequate and an optimal cut-off score of 15 was found for both scales. The parent-rated scale, the SLOI-PV, was more accurate in classifying the youth into the three groups and more sensitive to OCD symptoms than the SLOI-CV. Implications of these findings are discussed in view of the potential use of the SLOI-PV as a screening tool for identifying childhood OCD in community and clinical populations. / Graduate

Maladaptive appraisals and intrusive thoughts associated with obsessive compulsive disorder: A semiidiographic approach.Hutchinson, Geoffrey 08 1900 (has links)
This project investigated the metacognitive strategies used to appraise obsessive thoughts employed by individuals with different anxiety symptoms. Two hundred eighty-seven undergraduate students completed two repertory grids and three anxiety scales. The repertory grids respectively examined the appraisal process of intrusive thoughts both from the perspective of the rater and the rater's imagined average person. Variables quantified from the rep grid related to the construal process of raters' own intrusions, failed to demonstrate robust differences between OCD, non-OCD anxious, and non-anxious individuals. However, it appears that anxious individuals, not just those with OCD, use metacognitive strategies to suppress rigid constructions under perceived social evaluation. Future studies may wish to use related grid variables to explore the relation between obsessions and social anxiety.

Shame and compulsive behavioursHooper, Megan 27 December 1996 (has links)
95 leaves. / The area of shame, in psychology, has become increasingly popular
in recent years. Despite a great richness of theoretical
literature, there is, unfortunately, a dearth of actual research
on shame. This study has sought to empirically investigate the
relationship between shame and three compulsive behaviours,
namely, alcohol dependence, drug dependence and disordered
eating. Relations between shame and alcohol dependence, and shame
and drug dependence have already been established in the research
literature. This study sought to validate these relationships and
to extend the research in the area to establish a link between
shame and disordered eating. Cook's Internalised Shame Scale was
used to assimilate shame, whilst Millon's Clinical Multiaxial
Inventory was used to assess drug and alcohol dependence.
Disordered eating was assessed by using the Eating Attitudes
Test. Pearson's Product Moment Correlations were computed, and
regression analyses were conducted, it was found that shame was
significantly correlated with alcohol dependence, drug dependence
and disordered eating, and that shame predicted 33% of the
variation in alcohol dependent behaviour, 36% of the variation
in drug dependent behaviour, and 30% of the variation in
disordered eating.
Within the methodology used it was not possible to establish
causality. However, it was possible to contextualise these
results within the literature, and suggest possible explanations.
From within the literature on shame it was suggested that shame
is linked to alcohol abuse and drug abuse as well as to
disordered eating, and that the relationship is one of circular
causality. Shame is consequent on these behaviours but these
behaviours also attempt to reduce shame and are intended to be
self soothing, and containing of the uncomfortable feelings
attached to an inadequate sense of self. Limitations of the
study, and suggestions for future research were examined. / AM2016
