Do parent and child behaviours differentiate families whose children have obsessive‐compulsive disorder from other clinic and non‐clinic families?

Abstract

Parents and children in families where there is a child with OCD behave in a different manner during family interactions to other families. These findings offer interesting and important exploratory information relating to observed parent and child behaviour across different clinical and non-clinical groups. Limitations of this study are addressed and directions for further research are discussed.
