Existing research on the relationship between obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and insomnia is scarce. Moreover, no research has examined potential mechanisms that may account for the observed relations among OCD and sleep difficulties. The cognitive concerns subscale of anxiety sensitivity (AS), which reflects fears of mental incapacitation, has been linked to both symptoms of OCD and insomnia and may serve as a mechanism for increasing sleep disturbance among patients with OCD. The current study examined the relationship between OCD symptoms and insomnia and the potential mediating role of AS cognitive concerns. The sample consisted of 526 individuals recruited through Amazon's Mechanical Turk (Mturk), an online crowdsourcing marketplace. Results revealed distinct associations between the unacceptable thoughts domain of OCD and symptoms of insomnia. Additionally, AS cognitive concerns mediated the relationship between these constructs. Future research should seek to replicate these findings using clinical samples and prospective designs.
关于强迫症 (OCD) 和失眠之间关系的现有研究很少。此外，没有研究探讨可能解释 OCD 和睡眠困难之间观察到的关系的潜在机制。焦虑敏感 (AS) 的认知关注分量表反映了对精神无能的恐惧，与 OCD 的症状和失眠有关，并且可能是 OCD 患者睡眠障碍增加的机制。本研究探讨了 OCD 症状与失眠之间的关系以及 AS 认知关注的潜在中介作用。该样本由通过亚马逊的 Mechanical Turk（Mturk）招募的 526 人组成，Mturk 是一个在线众包市场。结果显示，OCD 的不可接受思维领域与失眠症状之间存在明显关联。此外，AS 的认知关注解释了这些结构之间的关系。未来的研究应该使用临床样本和前瞻性设计来复制这些发现。
