Abstract :
Background According to the observations, obsessive-compulsive
traits are the most important among behavior among the high school male
and female students. Individuals with obsessive-compulsive traits have
less quality of life. Objectives The present study aimed at determining
the relationship between behavioral inhibition, strategies for cognitive
regulation of emotions and young adult family of life events and changes
with obsessive-compulsive traits in male and female high school
students. Methods The population of the study included all high school
students in Shiraz in 2016 academic year. One hundred sixty-seven
students (73 males and 94 females) who were selected through random
multistage sampling method participated in this study. The instruments
were obsessive-compulsive inventory-revised, adults scale of behavioral
inhibition, cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire, and young adult
family inventory of life events and changes. Data were analyzed using
descriptive and inferential (Pearson correlation coefficient and
multiple regression analysis) statistics via SPSS software. Results
According to the multiple regression analysis, behavioral inhibition,
catastrophizing, and rumination were best predictors of
obsessive-compulsive traits. Conclusions Since behavioral inhibition,
catastrophizing, and rumination might result in obsessive-compulsive
traits, sufficient attention should be paid to these factors.
