Did you make up that hypothesis statement? It's a terrible statement to do research on.

It is what I have to work on.
I will be asking these questions to OCD patients.
i.e At what age did you begin to experience ritualistic behavors?
1. 0-12 years
2. 13-20 years
3. Did not experience any

You have to think of different variables that would lead you to hypothesize that adolescents are more likely than adults to develop OCD.
OCD education? Physical awareness? Hereditary/Family history? Frequency of obsessions? Comorbidity? Treatment?
Also important is demographic questions (sex, age, education, pass times)
