Resumo: | Aims: The main purpose of this study is to analyse the relationship between sexual difficulties and factors of sexual arousal, excitement, and sexual inhibition among men and women. Method: A total of 1,878 participants, of whom 983 were men (52%) and 895 were women (48%), with a mean age of 35.9 years (SD = 11.9; range = 18-79), were recruited online. The study’s instruments included a socio-demographic questionnaire, a questionnaire about sexual difficulties, and the Sexual Excitation/Sexual Inhibition Inventory for Women and Men (SESII-W/M). Results: Women with and without sexual difficulties differed significantly on all subscales of the SESII-W/M. Men with sexual difficulties scored significantly higher in the dimensions of Inhibitory Cognitions and the Dyadic Elements of the Sexual Interaction than men without difficulties. Inhibitory Cognitions was the strongest predictor of sexual difficulties for both men and women. Relationship Importance was also a strong predictor of sexual difficulties in women. Conclusions: Sexual inhibition serves as a predictor of sexual difficulties. The SESII-W/M seems to work better in determining the factors of sexual inhibition as predictors of sexual difficulties among women, than in identifying causes of sexual difficulties among men. |

Método: Foram recrutados online 1878 participantes, entre os quais 983 homens (52%) e 895 mulheres (48%), com idades médias de 35.9 anos (Mín = 18, Máx = 79; DP = 11.9). Os instrumentos do estudo incluíram um questionário sociodemográfico, um questionário sobre dificuldades sexuais e o Inventário de Excitação Sexual /Inibição Sexual para Mulheres e Homens (the Sexual Excitation/Sexual Inhibition Inventory for Women and Men - SESII-W/M). Resultados: Mulheres com e sem dificuldades sexuais diferem significativamente em todas as subescalas do SESII-W/M. Homens com dificuldades sexuais apresentaram valores significativamente mais elevados nas dimensões de Inibições Cognitivas e nos Elementos Diádicos da Interação Sexual, comparativamente aos homens sem dificuldades sexuais. As Cognições Inibitórias foram o preditor mais forte das dificuldades sexuais em mulheres. Conclusões: A inibição sexual poderá servir como um preditor das dificuldades sexuais. O SESII-W/M parece funcionar melhor na determinação dos fatores da inibição sexual como preditores das dificuldades nas mulheres, do que na identificação das causas das dificuldades sexuais entre nos homens.PsychOpenRepositório do ISPAPaul, VictoriaCarvalheira, Ana2019-07-12T14:32:09Z2019-01-01T00:00:00Z2019-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.12/7090engPsychology, Community & Health, 2019, Vol. 8(1), 27–44 https://doi.org/10.5964/pch.v8i1.2552182-438X10.5964/pch.v8i1.255info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-05T16:42:47Zoai:repositorio.ispa.pt:10400.12/7090Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:24:55.298865Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
