The study involved both partners using a mobile app designed to target maladaptive beliefs associated with ROCD. The findings suggest that the app effectively prevented the escalation of ROCD symptoms and improved relationship satisfaction. The app also led to reductions in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and ROCD cognitions. While the study had limitations, it highlights the potential of mobile app interventions in enhancing resilience and satisfaction within romantic relationships by addressing maladaptive beliefs associated with ROCD.
