Self-report screen for obsessive-compulsive symptoms across six domains · Last taken 2026052722 · Retake

4812WashingWashingCheckingCheckingOrderingOrderingHoardingHoardingNeutralizingNeutral.ObsessingObsess.

Total 18.1 / 72. Below the OCI-R screening cutoff (≥ 21). The dashed ring marks the subscale concern level (the OCI-R manual mean of 2.5, a 3-item sum of 7.5).

This is a screen, not a diagnosis. The cutoff is the OCI-R recommended screening threshold (Foa et al. 2002); because the OCI-PCP adapts the response format, the cutoff and subscale guides are inherited and approximate.

Raw sums. Total 0 to 72 (screening cutoff 21). Each subscale 0 to 12 (concern level 7.5).

Subscale interpretation

Washing 0 / 12 · below concern level

Contamination concerns and washing or cleaning compulsions: discomfort touching objects, feeling contaminated, washing more often or longer than necessary.

Obsessing 1.5 / 12 · below concern level

Intrusive, unwanted thoughts that are difficult to control or dismiss. This is the cognitive core of obsessive-compulsive symptoms.

Hoarding 6.0 / 12 · below concern level

Difficulty discarding possessions and saving items that are not needed. Note: this subscale predates the DSM-5 reclassification of hoarding as a separate disorder, and does not validly screen for Hoarding Disorder.

Ordering 3.8 / 12 · below concern level

Need for symmetry, order, and exactness: distress when objects are not arranged properly, or when an existing arrangement is changed.

Checking 3.6 / 12 · below concern level

Repeated checking to prevent harm or mistakes: doors, windows, taps, switches, checking more often than necessary.

Neutralizing 3.1 / 12 · below concern level

Mental neutralizing rituals: feeling compelled to count, to repeat certain numbers, or that some numbers are good and others bad.

About the OCI-PCP

The OCI-PCP is the Pharmacopedia adaptation of the OCI-R (Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory, Revised), an 18-item self-report screen for obsessive-compulsive symptoms developed by Edna Foa and colleagues. It keeps the 18 OCI-R items verbatim and the six subscales (Washing, Obsessing, Hoarding, Ordering, Checking, Neutralizing), and adapts only the response format: continuous 0 to 4 sliders with a per-item don’t-know option, in place of the original discrete 0 to 4 ratings.

The screening cutoff (total ≥ 21) is the OCI-R recommended threshold from the original validation study. Because the OCI-PCP changes the response format, that cutoff and the subscale concern level are inherited from the OCI-R and should be read as approximate; they were not independently validated for the adapted form.

Hoarding subscale caveat: the OCI-R predates the DSM-5 (2013), which reclassified hoarding as a distinct disorder separate from OCD. The Hoarding subscale measures hoarding-related obsessive-compulsive symptoms but does not validly screen for Hoarding Disorder.
