The syndrome of the "obsessive-compulsory scientist": a new mental disorder?
Abstract
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is the fourth most common mental disorder. Such a high prevalence inherently means that several unsuspected individuals might be affected, plausibly including several scientists who might more or less unconsciously express obsessive-compulsory (OC) activities in their routine activity.
