Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS 27 software. Results: The results indicate that the self-blame and focusing on thought subscales of the cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire have a mediating role between adult separation anxiety and partner-related obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Conclusion: Mindfulness serves as a mediator in the relationship between adult separation anxiety and partner-related obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
