Effect of religious culture on obsessive Cultural factors may influence the nature of obsessions and compulsions associated with the obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). The aim of this review is to evaluate the effect of religious upbringing on OCD symptoms. In fact, a variety of symptoms related to religious thoughts are more prevalent in clinical populations from countries in which religion is at the central core of the society, particularly in Muslim and Jewish Middle Eastern cultures, as compared with clinical populations from the West. These findings suggest that clinicians should be sensitive to the fact that religious obsessions may be more prevalent in certain cultures with which they may not be well acquainted.
宗教文化对强迫症的影响 文化因素可能会影响与强迫症（OCD）相关的强迫观念和强迫行为的性质。本综述的目的是评估宗教教养对强迫症症状的影响。事实上，与西方的临床人群相比，在宗教是社会核心的国家的临床人群中，各种与宗教思想相关的症状更为普遍，尤其是在中东的穆斯林和犹太文化中。这些发现表明，临床医生应该意识到宗教强迫观念在某些他们可能不太熟悉的文化中可能更为普遍这一事实。
