| OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER | PRADER WILLI SYNDROMESummary: The presence and severity of compulsive behaviours may be evaluated via the Compulsive Behaviour Checklist (CBC) and this instrument has been successfully employed in people with intellectual disability. However, the applicability of the overall CBC scoring system, which entails tallying the number of behavioural categories represented (i.e. five) as well as the number of individual behaviours endorsed (i.e. 25) is not known in the population with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). The present investigation examined the latent variable structure of the CBC in people with PWS in order to identify possible population-specific scoring and interpretation considerations. [AJ].
