Conclusion of the Report

I am currently writing the final aspect of the report, the conclusion. In the conclusion I will be answering my question 'To what extent are biological factors responsible for the development of obsessive compulsive disorder in children.'

In more detail, the plan for my conclusion is as follows:
  • The extent of my findings - biological factors are very responsible, in particular serotonin, however, psychological factors are also important.
  • The weaknesses and limitations of the methodology - there are very few studies looking at OCD in children in particular, moreover, the majority of studies had small sample sizes.
  • The recommendations for the future - there are very few sources which looked at environmental factors in particular, this has the potential to be further researched.
  • Reflections - what went well in the project, what I have learnt and how I could improve if I were to complete another project.
