| description | While obsessions are defined as unobtrusive, disturbing thoughts, compulsions are behaviors performed in the form of rituals
to relieve the feeling of discomfort caused by obsessions. Behavioral therapy is based on determining the relationship and
interfering with behavior by looking at the individual’s responses to environmental stimuli. The aim of this study is to describe
behavioral therapy techniques used in the treatment of individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and to investigate
their effectiveness. The study was carried out in accordance with the PRISMA directive. Web of Science, Pubmed, Science Direct,
YÖK National thesis Center and TR Index databases were scanned in order to identify studies using behavioral techniques in OKB
treatment between 2000 and 2020. As a result of the scan, 632 studies have been reached, 11 results have been evaluated. All of
the reviewed studies are published research papers. Five of the articles reviewed used virtual reality, three used psychoeducation
and exposure, two used exposure and response prevention techniques and one used psychoeducation, exposure and response
prevention techniques. The total number of participants of the researches included in the study is 438. Based on the results of
researches, techniques such as virtual reality, exposure, response prevention, psychoeducation seem to be effective when used
alone or together in the treatment of OCD. |
