Responsibility interpretations and omission bias across the perinatal period & the relationship to obsessive-compulsive symptomatology

Objectives: To investigate how responsibility interpretations regarding intrusions vary across the perinatal period and how this relates to obsessive-compulsive symptomatology. Design: A mixed design was used investigating differences in responsibility interpretations and omission bias between three groups (antenatal, postnatal, and non-childbearing) for baby-related and non-baby situations. Method: 94 women (26 antenatal, 35 postnatal and 33 non-childbearing controls) completed measures of various aspects of responsibility including responsibility attitudes, interpretations regarding specific intrusions and omission bias, as well as obsessive-compulsive symptomatology, anxiety and depression.
