Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (OCI)

The Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (OCI) is a psychological assessment tool used to measure the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms in individuals. It consists of a series of questions that ask about repetitive thoughts and behaviors, such as excessive cleaning, checking, or counting. By evaluating responses, mental health professionals can understand the presence and intensity of these symptoms, aiding in diagnosis and treatment planning for conditions like obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The OCI helps to identify how much these symptoms interfere with daily life, guiding effective interventions to improve the individual's quality of life.
