Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

When It Is Used

Use the log before or during ERP treatment when the practitioner needs current data about the client’s obsession-compulsion cycles.

What It Captures

The log captures obsessional thoughts or intrusive thoughts, compulsive responses, duration or frequency when used, distress or episode details when requested, notes, and completion status.

Limits

The tool does not assign clinical meaning, generate an exposure hierarchy, diagnose OCD, calculate standardized severity, or create treatment recommendations.

Is this an OCD severity scale?

No. It is an episode-level obsession and compulsion recording log, not a standardized severity assessment.

Can clients save partial entries?

Yes. Partial entries can be saved and resumed, and entries missing either obsession or compulsion are marked incomplete.

What does the practitioner review?

The practitioner reviews linked obsessional content, compulsive responses, duration or frequency where present, distress or episode details, notes, and descriptive patterns.

Does the system choose response-prevention targets automatically?

No. The system organizes reported data descriptively; the practitioner chooses targets.
