| Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between obsessions, self-esteem, and rumination in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Method: The present study is a descriptive, correlational study, and the statistical population of the study consists of all people with obsessive-compulsive disorder referring to treatment clinics in Tehran. Based on the Cochran formula, the sample size is estimated to be 230 people. Sampling was done by convenience method. The research data collection tools included Obsessive Beliefs Questionnaire (OBQ-44), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Questionnaire, and Nolen-Hoeksma and Morrow Rumination Scale (1991). Pearson correlation coefficients were used to analyze the data. Statistical calculations of the research were performed using SPSS statistical software. Findings: The research findings indicate that there is a negative and significant relationship between dysfunctional beliefs about responsibility, risk and threat assessment, and the need for reassurance and the self-esteem of people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Also, there is a positive and significant relationship between dysfunctional beliefs about responsibility, risk and threat assessment, and the need for reassurance and rumination in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Conclusion: Practical obsessive-compulsive disorder is associated with intrusive thoughts caused by rumination and causes psychological damage to individuals' self-esteem. |
