Abstract
Role of Scrupulosity, Religiosity, and Shame in Patients Diagnosed with OCD” explores the psychological and emotional factors influencing the severity and manifestation of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The study examines how scrupulosity—characterized by excessive moral or religious concerns—interacts with levels of religiosity to shape obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. It also investigates the role of shame as a critical emotional factor that may intensify symptoms, hinder help-seeking behavior, and impact treatment outcomes. By analyzing these interconnected variables, the research aims to provide deeper insights into culturally sensitive assessment and therapeutic interventions for individuals suffering from OCD.
