Abstract

The present study aimed to investigate the role of attachment and thought control strategies in obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) with a Turkish sample; 101 participants diagnosed with OCD completed questionnaires related to the research variables. Experience in Close Relationship Scale, Thought Control Strategies Questionnaire, and Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale were used respectively to evaluate attachment, thought control strategies and OCD symptoms. A series of hierarchical analyses were conducted. Results of the analyses revealed that there were significant relations between attachment, thought control strategies and OCD symptoms. Mediator analyses also revealed significant relations. Accordingly, mediating role of punishment as a control strategy between the anxiety level of attachment and the severity of obsessive symptoms; the mediating role of worry as a thought control strategy between the anxiety level of attachment and pathological responsibility symptoms; and the mediating role of social control strategy between the avoidance level of attachment and avoidance symptom severity were found. Findings of this study revealed that attachment and control strategies are important variables to understand OCD symptoms. The results were discussed in the light of the related literature. Theoretical and applied implications with respect to the role of attachment and thought control strategies in OCD were highlighted.

Özet

Bu araştırmada, obsesif kompulsif bozuklukta (OKB) bağlanmanın ve düşünce kontrol yöntemlerinin etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda 101 klinik örneklem katılımcısı ile araştırma yürütülmüştür. Katılımcılara Yale-Brown Obsesyon Kompulsiyon Ölçeği (Y-BOCS), Düşünce Kontrol Anketi (DKA), ve Yakın İlişkilerde Yaşantılar Envanteri-II (YİYE-II) uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre; klinik örneklemde obsesif kompulsif belirti şiddeti ile bağlanma alt boyutları arasında düşünce kontrolünün aracı rolü olduğu görülmektedir. Bağlanmanın kaygı düzeyi ile obsesyon belirti şiddeti arasında cezalandırma kontrol yönteminin aracı rolü, bağlanmanın kaygı düzeyi ile patolojik sorumluluk belirti şiddeti arasında endişelenme kontrol yönteminin aracı rolü ve bağlanmanın kaçınma düzeyi ile kaçınma belirti şiddeti arasında sosyal kontrol yönetiminin aracı rolü olduğu görülmektedir. Bu bulgular ilgili literatür ışığında tartışılmış, sonuçlara dayalı olarak alan için önerilere yer verilmiştir. OKB’de hem kuramsal hem de uygulama çalışmalarında bağlanma ve düşünce kontrol yöntemleri açısından dikkat edilmesi gereken noktaların altı çizilmiştir.
