Further Support for Five Dimensions of Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms
TLDR
Five OCD symptom dimensions were revealed that explained 68% and 60% of the variance, respectively, and supported a distinction between the doubt/checking symptom dimension and the unacceptable/taboo thoughts dimension that includes mental rituals.
Symptom structure in Japanese patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
TLDR
The findings in this study support transcultural stability in the symptom structure of OCD, which is consistent with the hypothesis that OCD is mediated by universal psychobiological mechanisms.

Correlates of insight into different symptom dimensions in obsessive-compulsive disorder.
TLDR
Assessing insight into dimension-specific OCD symptoms may challenge the existence of clear-cut OCD with fair or poor insight.

Symptom dimensions in OCD and their association with clinical characteristics and comorbid disorders
A comparison of symptom dimensions for obsessive compulsive disorder and obsessive compulsive-related disorders
TLDR
It is found that OCRD comorbidity does not increase the severity of OCD symptoms and the prevalence of an axis I diagnosis.
Symptom Dimensions in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Obsessive Beliefs
TLDR
The findings suggest that certain obsessive beliefs predicted certain OCD symptom dimensions, but results are not entirely consistent with the published literature suggesting the possibility of cross-cultural variations.
Examination of the relations between obsessive-compulsive symptom dimensions and fear and distress disorder symptoms.
Are There Familial Patterns of Symptom Dimensions in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder?
TLDR
The findings indicate that there is a high concordance of OCD symptom dimensions within multiplex families, andSymptom dimensions of OCD might thus have significant heritability.
