[Behavior therapy of obsessive compulsive disorders].
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders (OCD) were once considered a relatively rare condition and highly refractory to treatment. Behavioral treatments consisting primarily of various methods of exposure and response prevention are reported to be approximately 70% effective in treating this condition that may affect 2 to 3% of the population and, in many cases, the effectiveness of these interventions persists over a number of years. However much remains to be done in refining these strategies and determining which patients are most likely to respond to these interventions.
