About this document
Biological Explanations of OCD Explained by Barbara Gladysz is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Biological explanations of OCD focus on genetic and biochemical factors. Genes such as COMT and SERT which regulate neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin have been linked to OCD through studies finding gene variations associated with increased risk. Family and twin studies also show genetic involvement, though other factors like environment also contribute to OCD development.
