Norwegian (Bokmal) term or phrase: tvangstrekk
Hei!

I'm translating a report about a patient who exhibits compulsive behaviours (among others), so indeed, is 'compulsive behaviour' an adequate translation of the above term (appearing in a summary of diagnoses)?
Alternatively, could I simply refer to 'compulsions', or 'compulsive traits'?

Takk!
Alison.
