“…However, this potential bias is likely to underestimate the psychometric properties of the OCS scales, and our results are also very similar to those reported by other investigators and similar comparative studies (Nelson et al, 2001;Hudziak et al, 2006;Storch et al, 2006).…”

“…Use of a more complicated OCS scale and the addition of more CBCL items seems to improve the validity only marginally (Nelson et al, 2001;Hudziak et al, 2006;Geller et al, 2006;Storch et al, 2006).…”

“…In a few validation studies (Geller et al, 2006;Hudziak et al, 2006;Storch et al, 2006), the widely used Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) developed by Achenbach (1991), has been found to be able to identify obsessivecompulsive symptoms in children and adolescents as rated by parents. In the CBCL, a specific scale, the Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (OCS) (Nelson et al, 2001), has been extracted and found to be both reliable and valid.…”

“…The Child Obsessive-Compulsive Impact ScaleChild and Parent Versions [5] are psychometrically sound 56-item, parent-or child-report questionnaires that assess OCD-related impairment in different areas of the child's functioning, including school, social, and home/family activities. The Obsessive Compulsive Scale of the Child Behavior Checklist [35] is an 8-item parent-rated measure of OCD presence with moderate to high sensitivity, specificity, convergent validity, and predictive validity [53][54][55][56][57]. maximum score of 20 on the CY-BOCS Severity Scale.…”

This report describes the development and psychometric properties of the Children's Florida Obsessive Compulsive Inventory (C-FOCI). Designed specifically as a brief measure for assessing obsessive-compulsive symptoms, the C-FOCI was created for use in both clinical and community settings. Study 1 included 82 children and adolescents diagnosed with primary Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and their parents. The Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS) was administered to assess symptom severity. Thereafter, parents completed the Child Obsessive-Compulsive Impact Scale-Parent Version and Child Behavior Checklist, and youth completed the C-FOCI, Child Obsessive-Compulsive Impact Scale-Child Version, Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children, and Children's Depression Inventory-Short Form. A subgroup of 21 individuals was retested with the C-FOCI after completing 14 sessions of intensive cognitive-behavioral therapy. Construct validity of the C-FOCI was supported vis-à-vis evidence of treatment sensitivity, and moderate relations with clinician-rated symptom severity, the CY-BOCS Symptom Checklist, child- and parent-rated functional impairment, child-rated anxiety, and parent-rated internalizing symptoms. Discriminant validity was evidenced by weak relationships with parent-reports of externalizing symptoms. For Study 2, 191 non-clinical adolescents completed the C-FOCI to assess the feasibility of internet administration. Overall, internal consistency was acceptable for the C-FOCI Symptom Checklist and Severity Scale, and respondents were able to complete the measure with little difficulty. Taken together, the findings of Studies 1 and 2 provide initial support for the reliability and validity of the C-FOCI for the assessment of pediatric obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
