Abstract
- Clinical correlates of obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS) were evaluated in 100 adult consecutive outpatients with epilepsy, using the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (OCI-R), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES-II), and the Schizotypal Personality Questionnaire (SPQ). Dimensional Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (DY-BOCS) was applied to determine the types and severity of OCS to the 45 patients with epilepsy who were over 21 points on the OCI-R scale and 30 patients who were with diagnosed obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) among the patients in the psychiatry outpatient clinic, as a control group. As a result, it was found that patients with epilepsy with OCS tend to have more symmetry/exactness obsessions and compulsions, whereas patients with OCD had significantly more contamination/cleaning and aggressiveness obsessions and compulsions. In addition, OCS was found to be significantly higher in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and extratemporal epilepsy than generalized epilepsy. However, OCS were correlated with depression, dissociation, and schizotypy in patients with epilepsy, while only depression was predictive when regression analysis was performed for OCS. This study is the first study to compare patients with OCD with patients with epilepsy in terms of the nature of OCS and first identified the differences in OCS dimensions between patients with epilepsy with OCS and patients with OCD.
