Provided the first link between the pathophysiology and phenomenology of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The authors suggest that frontostriatal hyperactivation in OCD reflects a clear preference for controlled and not implicit information processing.

The authors demonstrate how nonverbal memory impairments in OCD are mediated by a deficient encoding strategy that in turn hinders memory retrieval. (Pubitemid 29185482)
