The sense of self-efficacy is a central entity of the subjective experience and seems particularly relevant in an occupational-based approach, knowing that it contributes to the dynamism of a system involving the person's aspects, the occupation, the adaptation, and the environment.

Abstract

Introduction: The impact of an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) on a person's life may be dramatic and may affect all aspects of functioning. Many studies develop the objective issues of this population whereas a few are interested in the subjectivity of the person. The sense of self-efficacy is a central entity of the subjective experience. It seems particularly relevant in an occupational-based approach, knowing that it contributes to the dynamism of a system involving the person's aspects, the occupation, the adaptation, and the environment.
