Cl. Mg.This research was conducted at the Technical University of Ambato and its objective was to identify the relationship between obsessive-compulsive behavior and social loneliness in adults. The research was correlational and cross-sectional, with the participation of 312 students, both men and women, of the Clinical Psychology career belonging to the Faculty of Health Sciences. To determine the presence of obsessive- compulsive behavior in the aforementioned population, the Obsessive Compulsions Test - Revised (OCI - R) was used to identify the absence of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), OCD traits and the presence of OCD, and the Social Loneliness Scale (ESTE II) was used to identify the level of social loneliness present in the participants. The analysis of the data obtained was done using the SPSS statistical package, with which, through Spearman's correlation test, the existence of a relationship between Obsessive Compulsive Behavior and Social Loneliness in the participants was identified. Regarding the OCI - R Test, the results showed that 49.7% of the 100% of the participants presented obsessive compulsive behavior, while in relation to the ESTE II Scale, it was established that the predominant level of social loneliness was the low level with 52.9% of the total population. In addition, based on a comparison of the research variables with the sex of the participants, the Chi-square test was used to determine the absence of a relationship between the two.
