Detailed explanation-1: -DSM-5 moved OCD out from under the Anxiety Disorder section, into a new category: Obsessive Compulsive and Related Disorders and added two new specifiers. Specifically a modification of one specifier (insight) and the addition of a new tic specifier.
Detailed explanation-2: -In DSM-III, DSM-III-R, and DSM-IV, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) was classified as an anxiety disorder. In ICD-10, OCD is classified separately from the anxiety disorders, although within the same larger category as anxiety disorders (as one of the “neurotic, stress-related, and somatoform disorders").
Detailed explanation-3: -The DOCS assesses the severity of the four most consistently replicated O-C symptom dimensions: (a) contamination/washing, (b) harm obsessions/checking compulsions, (c) symmetry/ordering, and (d) unacceptable thoughts. Hoarding, which is no longer considered a presentation of OCD, is not assessed.
