Abstract
Although it has been used in a number of small-scale pieces of research in recent years, there exist as yet no adequate standardization data for the Sandler-Hazari Obsessionality Inventory, a device designed to yield scores for both obsessional traits and obsessional symptoms. The present article describes research aimed at contributing towards a partial standardization of the Inventory using 736 subjects spread over six different samples. Results suggest that obsessional traits and symptoms are present in the non-clinical as well as in the clinical population, though the Inventory appears able to discriminate reliably between the two. Results also suggest that there may be a low-level correlation between traits and symptoms in both clinical and non-clinical populations, and that the presence of unscored buffer items in the Inventory may reduce the risk of clinical and non-clinical subjects faking good in their responses to it.
