以前没有使用类似方法和诊断标准的来自世界不同地区的精神疾病流行病学数据。这些国家的强迫症年患病率非常一致，从韩国和新西兰的1.1/100到波多黎各的1.8/100不等。唯一的例外是台湾（0.4/100），所有精神疾病的患病率最低。发病年龄以及与重度抑郁症和其他焦虑症的合并症的数据在各国也是一致的，但强迫症或强迫症的主导地位各不相同。这些发现表明，强迫症作为一种疾病在世界各地都很普遍。
Data on the epidemiology of psychiatric disorders from different parts of the world using similar methods and diagnostic criteria have previously not been available. This article presents data on lifetime and annual prevalence rates, age at onset, symptom profiles, and comorbidity of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), using DSM-III criteria, from community surveys in seven countries: the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Germany, Taiwan, Korea, and New Zealand. The OCD annual prevalence rates are remarkably consistent among these countries, ranging from 1.1/100 in Korea and New Zealand to 1.8/100 in Puerto Rico. The only exception is Taiwan (0.4/100), which has the lowest prevalence rates for all psychiatric disorders. The data for age at onset and comorbidity with major depression and the other anxiety disorders are also consistent among countries, but the predominance of obsessions or compulsions varies. These findings suggest the robustness of OCD as a disorder in diverse parts of the world.
