An update on everything I have done so far...

Firstly, after initial research, I learnt that successful treatments of OCD can be used to produce theories on the causes of OCD. I have decided to alter the focus of my question to the causes of OCD.

The cause of OCD is not known, however, scientists speculate that people with OCD have a different brain activity pattern, moreover, deficiency of serotonin, a neurotransmitter, could lead to the development of OCD. These biological factors could be to blame, however, environmental (e.g. stress) and psychological factors could also be significant. I have decided that my question will be 'to what extent are biological factors responsible for the development of OCD?'

I have also completed Project Proposal Part A and my supervisor has completed Part B. After this, I completed the Planning Review.
