“…However, neither the TSGS‐A nor the MGH‐HPS showed any correlation with the PI‐R. The TSGS‐A, but not the MGH adapted scales, was significantly linked with other measures relevant to tic disorder such as style of planning, organizational perfectionism, and impulsivity, replicating O'Connor and colleagues (). The TSGS‐A convergent and divergent validity and sensitivity to treatment outcome supports the value of using tic disorder assessment in BFRBs over and above OCD‐inspired scales like the MGH.…”

“…BFRBs have been considered as part of a continuum with obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD; APA, ), but BFRBs are also similar to tic and Tourette disorder and could be part of the tic disorder spectrum: both actions are semivoluntary, show similar trigger profiles, bring relief from sensations, and involve sensory stimulation; and in both disorders there is sensori‐motor activation and organizational perfectionism (O'Connor et al., ) and similar metacognitive trigger profiles (O'Connor et al. ).…”

“…Also, it seems plausible that the difference in planning abilities between TS patients and healthy controls are reduced as patients get older. And while neuropsychological studies do not report constant planning impairments, clinical questionnaires often report different organizational planning in TS and related disorders [ 210 , 211 ].…”

Neurocognitive functioning in Tourette syndrome (TS) has been the subject of intensive research in the past 30 years. A variety of impairments, presumably related to frontal and frontostriatal dysfunctions, have been observed. These impairments were found in various domains, such as attention, memory, executive functions, language, motor and visuomotor functions, among others. In line with contemporary research, other neurocognitive domains have recently been explored in TS, bringing evidence of altered social reasoning, for instance. Therefore, the aims of this review are to give an overview of the neuropsychological dimensions of TS, to report how neuropsychological functions evolve from childhood to adulthood, and to explain how various confounding factors can affect TS patients’ performance in neuropsychological tasks. Finally, an important contribution of this review is to show how recent research has confirmed or changed our beliefs about neuropsychological functioning in TS.

“…Similarly, while perfectionism can be conceptualized as a predisposing personality trait (Egan et al ., ), it is also possible that, as TTM symptoms become more severe, the individual engages in increasingly perfectionistic ideation to retain a sense of control over their dysregulated hair pulling behaviour and associated affect. Both self‐esteem and perfectionism are correlated with cognitions and beliefs related to boredom in OCRD samples – including participants with hair pulling behaviours (O'Connor et al ., ; Roberts et al ., ) – so future research using the BiTS in TTM‐specific samples may benefit from evaluating how the relationships between boredom‐related beliefs correlate with or predict those represented in the BiTS. Tracking changes to BiTS subscale scores, TTM severity, and negative affect over the course of psychological treatment may help determine the role these beliefs have in the maintenance of the disorder, which could facilitate novel developments in its cognitive‐behavioural conceptualization and treatment.…”

Objectives. The role of cognitions and beliefs in trichotillomania (TTM; hair pulling disorder) has been the subject of only limited investigation. This study aimed to develop and validate the Beliefs in TTM Scale (BiTS). Methods.A pool of 50 items based upon themes identified in previous research was administered online to 841 participants with and without self-reported problematic, noncosmetic hair pulling behaviours.Results. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses conducted in randomly splithalves of the sample supported retention of 14 items comprising three factors: negative self-beliefs, low coping efficacy, and perfectionism.Conclusions. The BiTS demonstrated satisfactory psychometric properties and all three subscales significantly correlated with greater hair pulling severity. Negative selfbeliefs predicted hair pulling severity over and above mood symptoms, suggesting the importance of addressing self-construals in psychological treatments for TTM. Validation in a clinician diagnosed sample is required. Practitioner pointsResearch supports cognitive therapies for treating trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder), although studies investigating the nature and role of cognitions and beliefs in this disorder have been lacking. This study developed and validated a self-report measure of three styles of beliefs most relevant to trichotillomania: negative self-beliefs, low coping efficacy, and perfectionism. Negative self-beliefs predicted the severity of trichotillomania symptoms over and above depression and anxiety, suggesting such cognitions may not necessarily be due to comorbidities. Future research should validate the new measure in a clinician diagnosed sample, and therapies for trichotillomania may be enhanced by targeting shame specifically.
