Perfectionism, a trait-like individual difference variable reflecting the tendency to set extremely high standards along with critical evaluations of one's own behavior, has long been regarded as a risk and maintenance factor for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, research exploring the relationship between these constructs is mixed. One explanation for these equivocal findings is the heterogeneous nature of OCD. Indeed, there is increasing evidence for distinct symptom dimensions that are more homogenous than the broad OCD phenotype. The current study examined the associations between self-reported perfectionism and OCD symptom dimensions controlling for probable depression status. The sample included 67 rural veterans. Results revealed a unique association between perfectionism and the unacceptable thoughts dimension of OCD. These findings are consistent with a growing body of literature demonstrating that OCD symptom dimensions have unique underlying dysfunctional beliefs.

在农村退伍军人中检查完美主义与强迫症症状维度之间的关系

完美主义是一种特质样的个体差异变量，反映了对自己的行为设定极高标准的趋势以及对自己行为的严格评估，长期以来一直被视为强迫症的风险和维持因素。但是，探索这些构造之间的关系的研究是混杂的。这些模棱两可的发现的一种解释是强迫症的异质性。确实，越来越多的证据表明症状征兆的维度比广泛的OCD表型更为同质。当前的研究检查了自我报告的完美主义与控制可能抑郁状态的强迫症症状尺寸之间的关联。样本包括67名农村退伍军人。结果显示，完美主义与强迫症的无法接受的思想维度之间存在独特的联系。
