The two things this lesson is separating

One reference for telling scrupulosity apart from dryness, and one on whether therapy that takes a person's religion seriously does anything. The second is the study that justifies a platform like this one existing, so its weaknesses are published rather than buried.

What the research says

Abramowitz JS, Jacoby RJ (2014). Scrupulosity: a cognitive-behavioral analysis and implications for treatment. Journal of Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders, 3(2), 140 to 149 doi

Sets out scrupulosity as a pattern of unwanted religious doubt and repeated checking, and separates it from ordinary religious carefulness. The distinction is what tells you whether a person needs a clinician or a teacher.

Therapies adapted to a person's religion did better than no treatment, and were broadly comparable to ordinary therapy on psychological outcomes while doing better on spiritual ones. The limits are real: the adaptations pooled were very different from each other, the samples were mostly Christian, and the people building the adaptations were often the people testing them.
