Mechanisms of Exposure Therapy for OCD
Exposure therapy is the most effective treatment available for obsessive compulsive disorder, yet up to 50% of patients do not recover because the mechanisms underlying successful response are poorly understood, leading to significant variability in how clinicians conduct exposure therapy. The main purpose of this study is to determine which …
Effect of a Family-Based CBT Self-Help Intervention for Adolescents With OCD
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if self-help book can be used to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adolescents aged 10 to 17. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can adolescents and their parents effectively reduce the severity of the obsessive-compulsive symptoms in adolescents who …
Reducing Maximal Support in OCD: Efficacy of Stepped-Care Online CBT
This study is conducted to explore the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of stepped-care internet-based cognitive behavior therapy (sc-ICBT) with reduced support compared to cognitive-behavioral group therapy(CBGT), to identify the optimal transition points for shorter effective stepped treatments, to find clinical indicators that can predict the effectiveness of CBT interventions, and to …
Gamified Combined Cognitive Bias Modification in Adults Diagnosed With OCD: Randomized Controlled Trial
This randomized controlled trial examines the effects of a mobile-based gamified combined cognitive bias modification (CBM-C) intervention on obsessive-compulsive symptoms, obsessive beliefs, attentional and interpretation biases, depressive symptoms, and psychological distress. The gamified CBM-C condition is compared to a standard mobile-based CBM-C and a placebo control condition. All interventions are …
Precision Analytic Research Methods in OCD
Psychiatric disorders characterized by compulsivity, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), result in considerable functional impairment and many individuals do not respond to gold-standard treatments. Compulsivity has long been thought to occur due to exaggerated habits and reduced goal-directed control, although more recently, this conceptualization of compulsivity as an imbalance of …
Accelerated rTMS in Hospitalized Patients With OCD: a Feasibility and Mechanistic Study
This study investigates a new treatment approach for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), a condition characterized by unwanted repetitive thoughts and behaviors. The goal is to determine whether combining specialized inpatient care with repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is feasible, well-tolerated, and effective. rTMS is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses …
Neural Mechanisms of Response Inhibition Training for OCRD
The impaired ability to suppress an inappropriate but pre-potent response (response inhibition; RI) characterizes several debilitating clinical problems, including obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (OCRD) such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, trichotillomania, and skin picking disorder. There is a critical need to develop an effective and durable treatment for OCRDs with demonstrable evidence …
SPACE: a Parent-based Treatment for Pediatric OCD
This study will investigate the parent-based treatment SPACE: Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions. The aim of this study is to investigate whether SPACE is effective in reducing family accommodation (FA) and OCD symptoms in children with a complex obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), that did not or cannot benefit from first …
Theta Burst Stimulation Plus Habit Override Training for Compulsive Behaviors
This project seeks to identify causal neural mechanisms underlying unwanted, repetitive behaviors (compulsions). Using non-invasive brain stimulation coupled with practice in a computer task, we will modulate activity in a target brain region and measure effects on compulsive behaviors and related measures. This work could ultimately lead to the ability …
Caloric Vestibular Stimulation for Modulation of Insight in Obsessive-Compulsive Spectrum Disorders
This study investigates whether caloric vestibular stimulation can modulate a measure of insight in obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorders.
