Abstrakt: Subclinical symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (i.e., obsessive compulsive symptoms, or "OCS") cause functional impairment, including for youth without full-syndrome OCD. Further, despite high rates of OCS in youth with anxiety disorders, knowledge of OCS in the context of specific anxiety disorders is limited. The present study seeks to: (1) compare OCS in pediatric patients with anxiety disorders and healthy youth, (2) determine which categorical anxiety disorder(s) associate most with OCS, and (3) determine relationships between OCS with anxiety severity and impairment. Data on OCS, anxiety, and functional impairment were collected from 153 youth with anxiety disorders and 45 healthy controls, ages 7-17 years (M = 11.84, SD = 3.17). Findings indicated that patients had significantly more OCS than healthy controls. Among patients, GAD was a significant predictor of OCS as well as OCD risk. These results suggest that OCS should be a primary diagnostic and treatment consideration for youth who present in clinical settings with GAD.
