Remembering and forgetting: directed forgetting effect in obsessive-compulsive disorder is a scholarly work, published in 2011 in ''Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment''. The main subjects of the publication include forgetting, obsessive-compulsive disorder, medicine, Motivated forgetting, cognitive psychology, anxiety disorder, recall, retrieval-induced forgetting, autism, psychiatry, psychology, episodic memory, audiology, clinical psychology, and cued speech.
