摘要:

AbstractThere is as yet no method in general use comparable to couple sex therapy for the treatment of individuals. It is proposed that the development of such a method is impeded not only by the stressful nature of newly‐created treatment relationships, but also by the age‐old belief that this stress can be eliminated by finding the right substitute partner. This belief has sustained inappropriately simple strategies for the treatment of individuals despite negative findings, giving it the status of a myth. Although Masters and Johnson recognize that the stress cannot be so easily eliminated, in their reliance on the surrogate to bypass this stress, they have lent indirect support to the myth. As a consequence, we now have the myth of the surrogate, a treatment conception that creates performance pressure in the surrogate and thus is likely to reinforce performance anxiety in the patient. Guidelines for alternative methods are suggested, including the use of a co‐therapy structure, with body‐work a potential rather than a requirement and with more attention paid to the subjective experiences of the participants.

摘要:

AbstractTwelve female graduate student volunteers were presented with two sets of sex‐related stories. One set was classified as erotically realistic and the other as hard‐core pornography. Sexual arousal was measured physiologically by means of a vaginal photoplethysmograph and subjectively by self‐report scales. Both sets of stories produced sexual arousal. The hard‐core stories produced significantly greater arousal on the vaginal pressure pulse measure and the subjective report measure. No difference was found on the vaginal blood volume measure.

摘要:

AbstractAlthough the notion of“psychosexual”disorder implies a relationship between sexual dysfunction and psychological maladaptation, the nature of that relationship remains puzzling. In this study the relationship between sexual difficulties and four personality styles (the anxious personality, the impulsive personality, the obsessive personality, and the phobic personality) was examined. Data were obtained from 185 psychiatric outpatients who completed a comprehensive self‐report questionnaire which included questions on personality traits and on specific and general sexual functioning. Chronic anxiety and changes in sexual interest and activity were associated, as were anxiety and thoughts of ending marriage. While anxiety did not relate to overall assessment of sexual satisfaction with spouse, a significant degree of impulsivity was noted in all groups reporting any history of difficulty with sexual relations. Women who were not getting along with their spouses and who had long‐standing difficulty becoming sexually aroused were high on both anxiety and impulsivity; women who currently had difficulties becoming aroused or reaching orgasm were not elevated on any profiles, indicating that a relatively acute onset of sexual difficulties may be unrelated to chronic personality dysfunction‐ing. Men with histories of chronic premature ejaculation were also chronically anxious. Thus partial support for the notion that a relationship exists between certain psychological variables and sexual dysfunction was obtained, but the nature of this relationship is not well defined.

摘要:

AbstractThe present study replicated Jastrow's 1891 experiment concerning differences between male and female vocabulary. Participants were 20 male and 20 female Caucasian middle‐class college students. They recorded up to 100 nouns in a 15‐minute period. Results indicate that women have increased their use of unusual words compared to women in 1891. Males used more scientific words and more body part words than females. In contrast to the previous study, there are no significant differences between the sexes in use of animal, nature, and food words. Females used more clothing words than males in this study, as in the previous study, and produced more different words than males. Vocabulary changes appear to reflect changes in the social structure of the society.

摘要:

AbstractIn 1955 data were collected from 161 couples who had been married for approximately 20 years and who had been participants in a longitudinal study of marriage during the 20‐year period. The data concerned the expectations, perceptions, and experiences of the couples in their sexual relationships. Results indicated that both men and women had held positive anticipations about sex from the outset of the marriage and currently received significant pleasure from their sexual relations, although men were significantly higher on both measures. A majority felt they had changed their early ideas and expectations, at least to some extent. Frequency of intercourse had dropped. Husbands continued to prefer intercourse more frequently than wives. About 70% of the wives were at least usually orgasmic and 36% of the husbands were occasionally impotent. Most individuals reporting that their opinions about sex were at least somewhat different from those of their spouse felt that these differences had produced negative effects in the marriage.
