“…Furthermore, as highlighted by Hardy et al [58], a common outcome of clinical treatment research is that something is better than nothing, but that most effective treatments do not differ in their degrees of efficiency [69]. However, participant perceptions of recovery and retrospective ratings of symptoms do have considerable validity as measures of important aspects of treatment efficacy and recovery [70,71].…”

“…Eight studies reported significant reductions and preoccupations (e.g., [58,61]) with sexual stimuli, sexual acting out, masturbation (e.g., [57,59,61,66]), and hours spent viewing of online pornography (e.g., [56,58]). Additionally, Elmore [57] reported there was greater risk reduction (i.e., Internet surfing to meet random men).…”

“…However, outpatient treatment implemented CBT and MET with a combination of psychotropic medication. The most occurring therapeutic treatment administered among the studies was CBT in various forms (e.g., individual CBT [39], online CBT [58], and group CBT [59]). Further details on treatment interventions (i.e., treatment length and outcomes) are summarized in Table 1.…”

Researchers have suggested that the advances of the Internet over the past two decades have gradually eliminated traditional offline methods of obtaining sexual material. Additionally, research on cybersex and/or online sex addictions has increased alongside the development of online technology. The present study extended the findings from Griffiths' (2012) systematic empirical review of online sex addiction by additionally investigating empirical studies that implemented and/or documented clinical treatments for online sex addiction in adults. A total of nine studies were identified and then each underwent a CONSORT evaluation. The main findings of the present review provide some evidence to suggest that some treatments (both psychological and/or pharmacological) provide positive outcomes among those experiencing difficulties with online sex addiction. Similar to Griffiths' original review, this study recommends that further research is warranted to establish the efficacy of empirically driven treatments for online sex addiction.

“…Hartman, Ho, Arbour, Hambley and Lawson (2012) compared residential treatment for hypersexuality (N=21) with comorbid hypersexuality and substance misuse (N=36) samples to find matched improvements in sexual compulsivity and quality of life for both groups. Hardy, Ruchty, Hull and Hyde (2010) evaluated the effectiveness of an online psychoeducational package (N = 138) to show pre-post reductions in masturbation frequency and pornography usage. Rosenberg et al's (2014) review of HD treatment was critical of the lack of credible treatment evaluation studies and Stein (2008) demanded the generation of modality-specific and systematic treatment outcome evidence.…”

The evidence base for treatment of hypersexuality disorder (HD) has few studies with appropriate methodological rigour. This study therefore conducted a single case experiment of cognitive analytic therapy (CAT) for HD using an A/B with extended follow-up design. Cruising, pornography usage, masturbation frequency and associated cognitions and emotions were measured daily in a 231-day time series. Following a 3-week assessment baseline (A -21 days), treatment was delivered via outpatient sessions (B -147 days), with the follow-up period lasting 63 days. Results show that cruising and pornography usage extinguished. The total sexual outlet score no longer met caseness and the primary nomothetic hypersexuality outcome measure met recovery criteria.Reduced pornography consumption was mediated by reduced obsessionality and greater interpersonal connectivity. The utility of the CAT model for intimacy problems shows promise. Directions for future HD outcome research are also provided.
