What is a behavioral study?

Who might this study be for?
This study may concern people with ocd; age range: From 18 Years to 50 Years. The criteria appear fairly broad, but you should not assume you are eligible. The study team must confirm diagnosis, age, exclusions, available locations, and next steps.
What would I likely need to do?
You may take part in sessions or exercises related to habits, thoughts, emotions, or behaviors. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.
Could this study affect my mood, habits, motivation, or stress?
Behavioral studies can involve habits, emotions, motivation, stress, sleep, or ways of thinking. Ask whether the intervention could affect your mood or stress, and who to contact if you feel worse. For any mental health study, also ask who to contact if you feel worse, whether participation may affect current treatment, whether you can stop, and who confirms eligibility.
Will I need to travel or attend in-person visits?
The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.
