Research findings have shown that intrusive thoughts are related both directly and indirectly (through cognitive evaluations, emotional responses, and neutralization strategies) to obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Also, the model after the final modification, based on the effect of intrusive thoughts (autogenesis and reactive) on obsessive-compulsive symptoms, considering the mediating role of variables of cognitive appraisal, emotional responses and neutralization strategies in Iranian non-clinical samples It has an acceptable fit with the experimental data.
