| description | Objective: The aim of the present study was to test hypothesis that obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) patients who
have autogenous obsessions and reactive obsessions show different sociodemographic and clinical characteristics with
different insight and cognitive insight levels.
Method: Sixty-one patients diagnosed as OCD according to the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-III-R (SCID-I) are
recruited. 31 patients had reactive obsessions and 30 had autogenous obsessions. The sociodemographic characteristics
of patients and the symptomatology were evaluated using psychiatric scales including SCID-I, Yale Brown Obsessive-
Compulsive Scale (YBOCS), Yale Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale-Symptom Checklist (YBOCS-SC) and Beck Insight
Scale.
Results: The percentage of women in reactive obsessive group was higher and also this group had significantly less
antipsychotic medication prescribed than the autogenous obsessive group. No significant difference was found for the
other demographic variables.
No significant difference was identified for the Beck Insight Self-Reflectiveness subscale but for the Self-Certainty
subscale, reactive obsessives had higher scores. Although there was no significant difference for the composit index
points, which is the subtraction of the two subscales, the p value was close to the limit. On the other hand YBOCS item-
11 scores which evaluates insight were higher in autogenous obsessives meaning low levels of insight.
Conclusion: For the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics; there was no significant difference between the
groups except gender distribution and antipsychotic medication. Our data about insight seems inconsistent but insight
and cognitive insight can be different entities which show different levels of insight. Further investigation with different
obsession types is needed. |
