囤积行为出现在许多临床综合症中，但最常见的是与强迫症有关。令人惊讶的是，很少有实证研究调查囤积行为的本质，尽管它们与严重的痛苦和损害有关。目前的研究调查了563名未被选中的大学生的囤积行为。通过主成分分析，我们确定了囤积行为的四个领域，这些领域是通过26个项目的储蓄库存修订来衡量的：难以丢弃、获取问题、混乱和干扰/困扰。所有四个领域和总体囤积行为都与囤积信念和强迫症（OC）症状密切相关。囤积行为与强迫症（OCD）量表中评估囤积和强迫症的分量表相关性最强，与洗涤分量表相关性最弱。囤积行为也显示出与社交焦虑、抑郁症状和担忧之间显著但更为温和的相关性。然而，焦虑并没有对囤积行为的预测产生独特的影响。最值得注意的是，囤积行为与焦虑敏感性有着惊人的密切关系，其程度与囤积与强迫症症状之间的关系相似。对研究结果进行了解释，并提出了未来的研究方向，特别强调进一步阐明囤积行为与焦虑敏感性之间的关系。2003爱思唯尔科学有限公司版权所有。
Hoarding behaviors occur in many clinical syndromes but are most commonly linked to obsessive compulsive disorder. Surprisingly little empirical work has examined the nature of hoarding behaviors despite their association with significant distress and impairment. The current study examined hoarding in 563 unselected college students. Using principal components analysis, we identified four domains of hoarding behaviors as measured by the 26-item Saving Inventory-Revised: Difficulty Discarding, Acquisition Problems, Clutter, and Interference/Distress. All four domains and total hoarding behaviors were strongly related to hoarding beliefs and to obsessive compulsive (OC) symptoms. Hoarding behaviors were most strongly correlated with subscales of an OC disorder (OCD) measure assessing hoarding and obsessions and least strongly correlated with the washing subscale. Hoarding behaviors also showed significant, but more modest, correlations with social anxiety, depressive symptoms, and worry. However, worry was not found to contribute unique variance to the prediction of hoarding behaviors. Of greatest note, hoarding behaviors showed a surprisingly strong relationship with anxiety sensitivity, similar in magnitude to the relationship between hoarding and OCD symptoms. Results are interpreted and lines of future research are proposed, with particular emphasis on further elucidating the relationship between hoarding behaviors and anxiety sensitivity.
