Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare temperament and character dimensions in students with and without symptoms of obsessive–compulsive. The method of the present study was Causal-Comparative. The statistical population of this research includes all high school students in Ardebil city during the academic year of 1393. In a cross-sectional study, 1000 students were selected by multi-stage cluster sampling from among public schools of Ardebil. After screening by Obsessive-compulsive questionnaire and clinical interview, they were assigned to two groups, those with symptoms of obsessive–compulsive (80) and those without symptoms of obsessive–compulsive (80). To collect data, the temperament and character inventory were used. The results showed that the mean scores of students with symptoms of obsessive–compulsive on persistence, self-directiveness, self-transcendence and cooperativeness were significantly less than those without symptoms of obsessive–compulsive. While that the mean scores of harm avoidance were significantly more than those without symptoms of obsessive–compulsive (p<0.001). The results also not showed that significant difference in novelty seeking and reward dependence. This finding has important implications for pathology of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Accordingly, professionals can use these results for the prevention and treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
