Abstract

There is no clear indication of how the severity and duration of obsessive-compulsive complaints can affect treatment results. Various studies seem to indicate that success or failure of treatment cannot be attributed to severity and duration of complaints. In this article, a bi-variant model is postulated, representing severity in combination with duration, and treatment results. Relatively short duration and relatively less severe complaints might, taken together, have predictive significance.
