Summary

This study is observing 400 adults with OCD who are receiving exposure therapy. Researchers will use machine learning to analyze self-reports, behavior, and physiological data from therapy sessions. The goal is to identify which mechanisms lead to better outcomes, so therapy can be improved for those who don't fully recover.
