Overview

Trial evaluates feasibility of an online prevention program for OCD in children, indicating promising acceptability.

Key Points

  • The prevention program showed high acceptability, with 66% of families completing at least three modules during the study.
  • Statistically significant improvements were found for compulsions and family accommodation after the program, with effect sizes between 0.56 and 0.75.
  • The study revealed one child met OCD criteria at the 12-month follow-up, suggesting ongoing monitoring is needed.
  • A randomized controlled trial is necessary to further validate the effectiveness of this novel prevention program.
