Primary outcomes

  1. executive functions

    Time frame: 1 month

    It was measured by behavior rating inventory of executive function. it consists of 75 items that are measured on a 5-point Likert scale. subscales include inhibition, shift, emotional control, self-monitoring, initiation, working memory, planning/organization, task monitoring and organization of materials. min and max scores are 0 and 150. respectively. the higher scores indicate problems in executive functions.

  2. obsessive-compulsive symptom

    Time frame: 1 month

    it was measured by the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory. This inventory contains 42 items that are measured on a 5-point Likert scale. It consists of the sub-scales of washing, controlling, doubting, ordering, obsession, hoarding, and neutralizing. the higher scores are probably an indicator of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

  3. reinforcement sensitivity

    Time frame: 1 month

    it was measured by Sensitivity to Punishment and Sensitivity to Reward Questionnaire: This 20-item scale measures sensitivity to reward and sensitivity to punishment, which is scored on a 5-point Likert scale (from "totally correct" to "totally incorrect"). the higher scores in subscales of sensitivity to punishment and Sensitivity to Reward indicate high activity in punishment and reward systems.
