This study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Obsessive–Compulsive Inventory–Child Version (OCI-CV) in clinical and community samples. Factor structure (confirmatory factor analysis), validity (convergent/discriminant, and predictive), and reliability (internal consistency, and 4-week retest) of the Persian version of the OCI-CV were investigated in a sample of 391 children and adolescents 7–17 years comprised of two groups: a clinical sample of youth with OCD (n = 62), and a community sample (n = 329). Participants completed the OCI-CV, Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC), Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI), and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). Similar to the English version of the OCI-CV, the Persian version of the scale demonstrated a stable six-factor structure, good convergent and discriminant validity through its correlations with other specific measures of pediatric psychopathology, acceptable sensitivity and specificity for the detection of OCD, and good reliability in terms of internal consistency and temporal stability. These findings suggest that the OCI-CV is a valid and reliable measure to assess obsessive–compulsive symptom dimensions in Iranian youth. Findings provide cross cultural support on the utility of OCI-CV as a self-report measure of obsessive–compulsive symptomology.

本研究在临床和社区样本中评估了波斯语版本的强迫性库存-儿童版本 (OCI-CV) 的心理测量特性。在 391 名儿童和青少年的样本中调查了波斯语版 OCI-CV 的因子结构（确认性因子分析）、有效性（收敛/判别和预测）和可靠性（内部一致性和 4 周重测）7 –17 岁由两组组成：患有强迫症的青年临床样本 (n = 62) 和社区样本 (n = 329)。参与者完成了 OCI-CV、儿童多维焦虑量表 (MASC)、儿童抑郁量表 (CDI) 和儿童行为检查表 (CBCL)。与英文版的 OCI-CV 类似，波斯版的量表表现出稳定的六因子结构，通过其与儿科精神病理学的其他具体测量的相关性、对强迫症检测的可接受的敏感性和特异性以及在内部一致性和时间稳定性方面的良好可靠性，具有良好的收敛和区分效度。这些研究结果表明，OCI-CV 是评估伊朗青年强迫症状维度的有效且可靠的衡量标准。研究结果为 OCI-CV 作为强迫症状的自我报告测量的效用提供了跨文化支持。这些研究结果表明，OCI-CV 是评估伊朗青年强迫症状维度的有效且可靠的衡量标准。研究结果为 OCI-CV 作为强迫症状的自我报告测量的效用提供了跨文化支持。这些研究结果表明，OCI-CV 是评估伊朗青年强迫症状维度的有效且可靠的衡量标准。研究结果为 OCI-CV 作为强迫症状的自我报告测量的效用提供了跨文化支持。
