Objective: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients frequently present with Axis-II disorders, particularly Cluster C (anxiety spectrum) and Cluster A (schizophrenic spectrum) personality disorders. The present study examined patterns of Axis-II comorbidity in a Turkish OCD sample. In addition, we explored the impact of personality disorder symptoms on OCD-symptom severity and symptom profile.
