QUICK ANSWER
OCD Compulsions Test: Checking, Washing & Rituals — a 64-question self-assessment, about 10 min. This test evaluates different forms of compulsions: checking rituals, washing and contamination, ordering and symmetry, counting and repetition. Once finished, you receive a detailed PDF report ($3.60): your score on each of its 5 dimensions, a radar chart, up to 17 clinical reading frameworks and a personalized action plan. It is designed to help you know yourself better.
This test covers checking, time, the body, avoidance, organization, perfectionism, anxiety, relief, reassurance, tension, rumination and readiness to change. What the test asks, for example Checking If you check several times that you have properly locked the door. If a single check is enough for you to feel at ease. Time If these checks take up a lot of your time daily. If your checking takes up no particular amount of time. The body If you wash your hands so long or so hard that your skin gets irritated. If you wash without any particular ritual. Avoidance If you avoid certain places for fear of dirt or germs. If you use public places and public transport without apprehension. Organization If you constantly rearrange objects so they are perfectly aligned. If you put your things away without any particular order. Perfectionism If the feeling that it is not perfect stops you from moving on. If something crooked or asymmetrical does not bother you. Anxiety If touching certain surfaces (handles, money) makes you very uncomfortable. If the idea of contamination does not occupy your mind. Relief If repeating these gestures momentarily relieves your anxiety. If, when you know a gesture is pointless, you do not repeat it. Reassurance If you sometimes ask others to check for you to reassure yourself. If, once something is checked, the doubt does not come back. Tension If you feel very uncomfortable when someone disturbs the order of your belongings. If you can concentrate even when your surroundings are untidy. Rumination If you silently recite words or phrases to reassure yourself. If you do not repeat words or phrases mentally. Readiness to change If the way you function has a real effect on your daily life. If you believe you are capable of growing in this area.

What should I do with my results?

The report organises your answers and offers points for reflection. You can discuss it with a professional; it does not replace their assessment or prescribe treatment.
Can people close to me also take it?
