NCT ID:
NCT03420495
Brief Summary:
The investigators are examining whether conditions of ambiguity during decision-making may prime intolerance of uncertainty beliefs (i.e., difficulties coping with ambiguity, unpredictability, and the future) and lead to impaired performance when individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) are making uncertain decisions compared to non-psychiatric controls.
Detailed Description:
The primary aims of this study are to examine the extent to which individuals with OCD avoid decisions that involve ambiguity through the use of self-report and behavioral measures. Specifically, the investigators will examine how individuals with OCD minimize risk at the expense of monetary profit under conditions of ambiguity (relative to risky but unambiguous options) compared to non-psychiatric controls utilizing a series of judgment and decision-making (JDM) tasks.
