“…Contrary to the sample of Bancroft et al (2003a), the current sample consisted of both women and men (as opposed to only men), with a relatively high mean age (42 vs. 28 years) and with all participants involved in long-term relationships. Also, the current sample showed rather low frequencies of sexual activity (around 2 sexual activities per week), if compared to, for instance, a recent large-scale Canadian study in which a weekly average of 6.2 sexual activities was reported (Kingston et al, 2020). Nonetheless, our results suggest that also for part of this sample of relatively older women and men in long-term relationships, increases in current or lagged negative affect were associated with increases in momentary sexual motivation.…”

We investigated the effect of fluctuations in negative and positive affect on momentary sexual motivation in a sample of women and men in a steady relationship (n = 133). Sexual motivation was regarded as the aggregate of sexual desire, subjective sexual arousal and openness to sexual contact. Experience sampling methodology was used to collect up to 70 measurements per participant over a period of seven consecutive days of sexual motivation, and negative and positive affect. Using multilevel analysis, we investigated cross-level interactions between affect and trait measures as specified in the dual control model (DCM). This model postulates sexually excitatory and inhibitory mechanisms as relatively independent systems that together can explain individual differences in sexual motivation and behavior. Results implicated that any intensification of feelings, positive or negative, was associated with a momentary increase in sexual motivation for participants more prone to sexual excitation. In the lagged analysis, higher preceding negative affect, measured 1–2 h earlier, forecasted an increase in current sexual motivation for participants more prone to sexual excitation. The lagged analysis included the autoregressive effect or inertia of sexual motivation. Inertia reflects the extent to which sexual motivation lingers and persists at similar levels. Our findings showed that sexual motivation levels persisted less in individuals with higher sexual inhibition proneness due to threat of performance failure. This study demonstrated how experience sampling methodology can be used to extend research on associations between mood and sexual motivation and implicates that DCM factors moderate these associations.

“…This seems to contradict the sex drive hypothesis, as men usually are the ones with more diverse sexual interests and more sex drive (Bouchard et al, 2017;Dawson et al, 2016). The women in our sample did not have a higher sexual outlet than the men, and both our women and men even scored somewhat lower on sexual outlet compared to other, more representative community samples (Engel et al, 2019;Kingston et al, 2020;V. Klein et al, 2015).…”

“…As no prior large-scale, cross-cultural study was conducted on CSBD, we could not set formal hypotheses. However, based on previous findings, we hypothesized that men would report higher CSBD scores than women ( Bőthe et al., 2020 ; Kingston et al., 2020 ). All other research questions of this study were examined in an exploratory manner.…”

Background and aimsDespite its inclusion in the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases, there is a virtual paucity of high-quality scientific evidence about compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD), especially in underrepresented and underserved populations. Therefore, we comprehensively examined CSBD across 42 countries, genders, and sexual orientations, and validated the original (CSBD-19) and short (CSBD-7) versions of the Compulsive Sexual Behavior Disorder Scale to provide standardized, state-of-the-art screening tools for research and clinical practice.MethodUsing data from the International Sex Survey (N = 82,243; Mage = 32.39 years, SD = 12.52), we evaluated the psychometric properties of the CSBD-19 and CSBD-7 and compared CSBD across 42 countries, three genders, eight sexual orientations, and individuals with low vs. high risk of experiencing CSBD.ResultsA total of 4.8% of the participants were at high risk of experiencing CSBD. Country- and gender-based differences were observed, while no sexual-orientation-based differences were present in CSBD levels. Only 14% of individuals with CSBD have ever sought treatment for this disorder, with an additional 33% not having sought treatment because of various reasons. Both versions of the scale demonstrated excellent validity and reliability.Discussion and conclusionsThis study contributes to a better understanding of CSBD in underrepresented and underserved populations and facilitates its identification in diverse populations by providing freely accessible ICD-11-based screening tools in 26 languages. The findings may also serve as a crucial building block to stimulate research into evidence-based, culturally sensitive prevention and intervention strategies for CSBD that are currently missing from the literature.
