Objectives
The aim of the current study is to develop and validate the Mini Youth OCD Scale (MY-OCD). MY-OCD is a clinical requested short self-report questionnaire used to measure symptoms and severity of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in children and adolescents. The questionnaire enables frequent tracking of OCD symptoms and severity during and after treatment, strengthening the initial clinical assessment as well as the tracking of symptoms and recovery across time.
Methods
For validation of MY-OCD, one hundred children and adolescents with OCD (aged 7 to 17 years) were assessed with The Children's Yale Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS) and asked to fill in the MY-OCD. Concurrent validity was assessed by comparing CY-BOCS scores to self-ratings on MY-OCD for the sample as well as subgroups of age and gender. This assessment was carried out at several time-points to evaluate if MY-OCD is equally sensitive to change as the CY-BOCS.
Results
Inclusion is still ongoing and preliminary findings will therefore be presented at the conference.
Conclusions
We expect the MY-OCD to yield reliable and valid subscales and total scores for obsessive-compulsive symptom severity in children and adolescents with OCD. Further, we expect MY-OCD to be equally sensitive to change as the CY-BOCS.
