Obsessive-compulsive symptoms in the schizophrenia-spectrum: current developments in psychopathology research

Abstract: Purpose of reviewSchizophrenia-spectrum disorders (SSD) frequently involve symptoms that usually are ascribed to nonpsychotic disorder spectra, such as obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS). These symptoms can cause differential diagnostic challenges, particularly in early illness stages, and must be considered in treatment planning. In this review, we provide an overview of recent literature within the field of OCS in SSD, with a focus on psychopathology research.Recent findingsOCS are seen in approximately a q… Show more

“…In fact, OCD and SSD are characterized by apparently overlapping clinical characteristics (i.e., sense of intrusive and recurrent unpleasant thoughts), which are actually underpinned by different phenomenological experiences. In fact, the experiential "mineness" of intrusive thoughts (i.e., whether they are perceived as belonging to the self or not) [1,2] is preserved in people with OCD, while it is questioned in people with SSDs due to a weakening of the primitive feeling that one's own thoughts are self-generated [3,4]. Furthermore, the two disorders present high rates of comorbidity, with prevalence rates around 12% [5], and are overlapping in terms of age of onset and course of illness [6].…”

“…The presence of OCS in schizophrenia patients could be responsible for making the overall clinical presentation even more complex than schizophrenia and may further worsen the patient’s functioning [ 8 ]. Specific patterns of OCS emergence and duration in schizophrenia may be liable for different clinical trajectories [ 9 ]. Current definitions of OCS have been criticized for their overly inclusive nature, which limits differential diagnosis and more precise prognostic stratification.…”
