When It Is Used
Use it around a specific OCD ERP homework assignment when the practitioner wants the client's feared outcome prediction recorded before exposure and the actual outcome recorded afterward.
Expectancy Exposure Worksheet
The Expectancy Exposure Worksheet is an OCD ERP homework worksheet for clinicians assigning exposure with response prevention. It helps the practitioner and client record the feared consequence, the client's 0-100 likelihood estimate, the actual outcome, and the learning statement for later review.

What It Does Not Do
It does not prescribe exposures, diagnose OCD, score severity, or label the discrepancy with clinical meaning. Practitioner review remains separate from the worksheet result.
Is this a general exposure log?
No. It is an expectancy comparison worksheet for OCD ERP homework, centered on predicted feared consequence, likelihood, actual outcome, and learning.
Can the likelihood scale be changed?
No. The worksheet uses a fixed 0-100 likelihood rating because that is part of the supported mechanic.
What happens if the client only completes the pre-exposure section?
The worksheet remains a prediction record. It should not imply that an expectancy comparison has occurred until post-exposure outcome and learning are entered.
Does the result interpret whether the client's OCD appraisal was false?
No. The result shows the reported prediction and outcome side by side; interpretation belongs to practitioner review.
