Several authors have suggested that these checking rituals could be related to memory deficits. Our aim was to test whether patients with OCD show working memory impairment in relation to their checking behavior.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0924933800192284_abs2\" sec-type=\"methods\"><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We evaluated the verbal and visuospatial components of patients\u2019 and controls\u2019 working memory using the reading span and backward location span tests. Checking behaviors were measured by recording participants\u2019 eye movements during an image comparison task using a non-invasive, infra-red TOBII 1750 eyetracker. Participants were seated, head-free, in a natural position in front of the eyetracker screen where the images were displayed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0924933800192284_abs3\" sec-type=\"results\"><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with OCD made more gaze moves to compare images than controls.
