Participate in a survey conducted by Baylor College of Medicine that aims to better understand the sociocultural and regional influences on OCD and also to better understand how many people with OCD have experienced trauma, and to what extent they believe their OCD and trauma are related.

Participate in a Research Study on Children with OCD
Emotion Regulation, Development, and Health Factors in Children with OCD
Researchers in the Department of Psychiatry at University of California, Los Angeles are
conducting a 45-minute survey examining emotion regulation, health, and development in
children with OCD ages 10-17 years. We are recruiting children between the ages of 10 and 17
who have a diagnosis of OCD and their parents/caregivers to participate in the survey.
Participation will last approximately 45 minutes (25 minutes for parent questionnaires and 20
minutes for child questionnaires) and will involve questions about your child and
families’ demographic and medical/psychiatric history, followed by questions regarding your
child’s obsessive-compulsive symptom severity, associated impairment, family accommodation,
internalizing and externalizing symptoms, anxiety sensitivity, sleep-wake profiles (i.e.,
chronotype), sleep disturbance, and sleep patterns. You will then be prompted to ask your child
to complete the remaining portion of the survey in private, unless assistance is needed. Children
will answer questions regarding their OCD symptoms, associated impairment, sleep-wake
profiles (i.e., chronotype), sleep disturbance, sleep patterns, externalizing and internalizing
symptoms, and emotion regulation.
You will have a 1 in 20 chance of receiving a $25 Amazon e-gift card for participating in the
survey. Upon survey completion, your child will be redirected to a separate survey link that is
not connected to survey answers, where they will be prompted to enter your email address.
You do not need to complete the survey in order to enter the lottery.
