Resumen

Hay un consenso internacional sobre la existencia de ciertas creencias disfuncionales que subyacen al desarrollo y/o al mantenimiento del trastorno obsesivo-compulsivo (TOC). No obstante, temas tales como la dimensionalidad de tales creencias y si son específicas del TOC, siguen pendientes de resolución. Este artículo examina estos aspectos mediante dos estudios diferentes: Estudio 1: Se realizaron análisis factoriales confirmatorios (573 sujetos no clínicos) del Inventario Español de Creencias Obsesivas-Revisado (ICO-R), que fue diseñado para evaluar creencias disfuncionales relacionadas con el TOC. La mejor solución factorial posible fue la de 8 factores: responsabilidad; importancia de los pensamientos; fusión pensamiento-acción probabilidad; fusión pensamiento-acción, moralidad; importancia de controlar los pensamientos; sobrestimar el peligro; intolerancia a la incertidumbre; y perfeccionismo. Estudio 2: El ICO-R se administró, junto con otros cuestionarios de síntomas, a 75 pacientes TOC, 22 deprimidos, y 25 pacientes con trastornos de ansiedad no-TOC. Los resultados indican que, si bien los pacientes TOC difieren de la población no clínica en todas las subescalas del ICO-R, ninguno de los dominios de creencias es específico del TOC, dado que estos pacientes no se diferenciaron de los otros dos grupos en ninguna de las subescalas del ICO-R.
