This free OCD test presents 12 symptom items inspired by the Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory–Revised (OCI-R). Rate how much each statement applied to you over the past month. The tool is educational screening only—not a diagnosis.
Obsessive-compulsive patterns can include unwanted intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals. This screening summarizes frequency-style ratings into a total score and highlights elevated symptom areas when present, such as checking, washing, ordering, or distressing thoughts.
A score at or above common OCI-R research cutoffs can suggest that follow-up with a clinician experienced in OCD may be worthwhile. It still does not diagnose OCD or replace evidence-based care such as exposure and response prevention (ERP), cognitive behavioral therapy, or medication decisions made with a prescriber.
Results are processed in your browser for the current session. Retake anytime. If symptoms interfere with work, school, relationships, or sleep, seek professional support. For immediate danger or self-harm thoughts, call or text 988 (U.S.) or local emergency services.
Most people finish in about five minutes. Rate the past month as honestly as you can. Afterward, review the recommendation text on the results page and consider sharing concerns with a qualified provider if symptoms cause distress or take significant time from your day.
Online OCD tests are popular because symptoms can feel confusing or hard to explain. Intrusive thoughts do not automatically mean you will act on them, and rituals often function as temporary anxiety relief. A structured screen can help you organize what to discuss with a clinician.
Each item is rated on a frequency or intensity scale (for example from “not at all” to “extremely”). Points are summed for a total between zero and a defined maximum for the twelve-item sample. Research on the OCI-R often discusses a cutoff near 21 as one signal that clinical follow-up may be useful.
Domain or symptom-area highlights can show where your answers clustered. Those highlights are educational clues, not separate diagnoses of contamination OCD, checking OCD, or other subtypes. Subtype labeling belongs in clinical care when appropriate.
Scores can rise during stressful periods and fall when life is calmer. That variability is another reason a single online score should not be treated as a lifetime label. Use it to track whether symptoms deserve a professional conversation.
Yes. The screening, results, and overview content on Tests Pro are free with no account required.
Many OCI-R research discussions use a cutoff around 21 as a screening signal. Any score paired with real-life distress is a valid reason to talk with a clinician.
No. Only a qualified mental health professional can diagnose OCD after a comprehensive assessment.
Standard assessment flows keep answers in your browser session for scoring and result display. They are not collected into a personal medical record on Tests Pro.
