Özet
Contemporary opinions which are prevailing in psychiatry handle the obsessive compulsive disorder from a positivist-empiricist point of view and such attitudes cause an inconsistent and unintegrated vista about the compiling information concerned with the disorder. The importance of the culture-sensitive approaches about OCD is being neglected in contemporary researches and clinical practices. It can be asserted that, to establish a working cooperation between psychiatry and humanities, as done before with neuroscience, physiology, biochemistry and pharmacology, will procreate quite effective results in the field of OCD research. Embracement of the culturesensitive approach while handling the OCD will provide momentous contributions, not only for the endeavors about understanding the disorder entirely, but also for the treatment of the disorder.
