Abstract:

Introduction: Both adults and children with OCD, vary in terms of
insight related to the accuracy of their dysfunctional beliefs, ranging from
acknowledging the fact that the beliefs are irrational to being completely
convinced the beliefs are true.

Material
and Method: Participants 
consisted of 264 adolescents, aged from 12 to 16 years. Mean age of the
sample was 13.56 (SD±1.11) years. The Obsessive Compulsive Inventory-Revised
(OCI-R),  State Trait Anxiety Inventory
for Children (STAI-C), Obsessive Beliefs Questionnaire-Child Version (OBQ-CV),
and Meta-Cognitions Questionnaire for Children (MCQ-C) were applied.

Results:
The
mean scores of  subscales of OCI-R and
OBQ  are not different in regarding to
gender  (p> .05) but STAI-C,
MCQ-Positive and MCQ-Negative are differed (p<.05). In addition, the
correlations between scales are mild level.

Discussion: Although studies on this subject are
generally on adults, researches have been started on cognitive backgrounds of
OCD symptoms of children and adolescents in recent years. Our results are
consistent with the literature and provide a basis for further research.
