Abstract Aim and Background: Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a neuropsychiatric condition that is associated with considerable psychosocial impairment. The present study investigated the psychometric properties of a Persian version of Obsessive Compulsive Inventory-Child Version (OCI-CV) in the male and female students. Methods and Materials: This study was of a correlational type. The participants were 831 students (234 boys and 597 girls) selected through a multistage-cluster random sampling among the students in elementary, middle and high school in the city of Najaf Abad. The three scales administrated in this study were: Obsessive Compulsive Inventory – Child Version ( OCI - CV), Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC) and Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI).A cronbach’s and test-retest reliability was calculated to examine the reliability of the OCI - CV inventory And to check the validity of the method convergent validity, divergent validity and confirmatory factor analysis was used. Findings: The calculated α for the OCI-CV inventory was 0.73, 0.67, 0.5, 0.71, 0.69 and 0.72 for Checking, Obsessing, Hoarding, Washing, Ordering and Neutralizing dimensions respectively and 0.85 for the whole questionnaire. The validity of the inventory was also examined through correlating it to the Anxiety Scale for Children and Children’s Depression Inventory given the values of 0.52 and 0.26. Using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) confirmed the six-factor structure. Conclusions: The Persian version of the OCI-CV seems satisfactory for measuring Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder symptoms in non-clinical children samples. Future research is, however, needed to confirm these data in a sample of OCD patients.
