Trichotillomania and excoriation disorder are obsessive-compulsive related disorders that are often subclassified together as body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB) disorders. While previous research suggests shared genetic factors, the genetic architecture of these BFRBs remains incompletely understood. Probands with trichotillomania and/or excoriation disorder and both of their biological parents were recruited for an ongoing genetic study of parent-offspring trios with BFRBs. Genome-wide arr...
