Abstract :

[en] Foa et al. (2002) presented a new instrument, the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory-Revised (OCI-R), designed to evaluate the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms in both clinical and non-clinical individuals. The present study investigates the psychometric properties of a French version of this scale. The OCI-R French version was completed by 583 undergraduate students. The results revealed satisfactory internal consistency as measured by Cronbach's alpha coefficients (ranging from 0.63 to 0.86). In addition, the six-factor structure found by Foa et al. (2002) was confirmed in our sample by a confirmatory factor analysis. In brief, the French version of the OCI-R seems satisfactory for measuring Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders (OCD) symptoms in non-clinical samples. Future research is, however, needed to confirm these data in a sample of OCD patients. © 2006 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
