Please let a parent or caregiver know that you would like to make an appointment with a licensed mental health professional to get a formal assessment, receive a diagnosis, and start treatment.

About this Screener
This screener is an online version of the ultra-brief 5-question Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory - child version (OCI-CV-5). This measure has been shown to be psychometrically valid in research studies (in other words, it can accurately assess the likelihood of whether an individual has OCD or not) while still being ultra-brief, thus making it an ideal assessment measure for screening.
More information about the OCI-CV-5:
- It has 5 items for which you will report how often you experience it.
- Each “frequency” gets a score (0-2), which is then added together for a total score.
- A total score of greater than 2 means OCD is likely and further diagnostic assessment is recommended.
