Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the factor structures related to the Maudsley Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (MOCI) in middle school students.
Methods: A total of 1,175 7th grade students from four middle schools in Paju city completed the MOCI, Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression scale (CES-D), and Self Esteem Scale (SES). An exploratory factor (maximum likelihood method with oblique rotation) and correlation analyses were subsequently performed.
Results: The two main factors related to the MOCI were ¡¯intrusive thought¡¯ and ¡¯contamination¡¯. ¡¯Intrusive thought¡¯ was positively correlated with the CES-D and negatively associated with the SES. ¡¯Contamination¡¯ had a negative correlation with self-esteem as measured by the SES.
Conclusions : The results of this study revealed a two-factor structure of obsessive and compulsive symptoms in middle school students.
