Abstract
Introduction: OCD is a heterogenous entity in terms of symptoms and insight. Various models have been formed to explain the complexity of OCD and how obsessive beliefs play a vital role in the etiology and psychopathology of OCD. Evaluating the association between these beliefs and insight can be very advantageous.
 Method: aim: to determine the relation between obsessive beliefs and the level of insight in obsessive compulsive patients, Venue: The study was conducted at the institute of mental health and hospital, Agra, Design: The study is a hospital based cross sectional study. sampling: 80 ocd patients as per ICD-10 diagnostic criteria were selected through purposive sampling. Tools: Patients assessed using Obsessional belief questionnaire-44 (OBQ-44) and Scale to Assess Unawareness in Mental Disorder (SUMD).
 Result: the data was analysed with product moment correlation and it was found that OBQ-ICT has negative correlation (r = -0.36) with SUMD indicating controlling thought promote insight in patients. No significant correlation was found between OBQ-RT and OBQ-PC and insight.
 Conclusion: In this study importance of control of thought was the only variable which is significantly correlated with level of insight. Implications of these findings for conceptualising the relationship between obsessive beliefs and insight have been discussed.
 Key Words: OCD, Obsessional belief, Insight, SUMD.
