BACKGROUND AND AIMS :Compulsive sexual behavior (CSB) is a common behavior affecting 3-6% of the population, characterized by repetitive and intrusive sexual urges or behaviors that typically cause negative social and emotional consequences.
For this small pilot study on neurological data, we compared 13 individuals with CSB and gender- matched healthy controls on diagnostic assessments and computerized neurocognitive testing.
No significant differences were found between the groups.
These data contradict a common hypothesis that CSB is cognitively different from those without psychiatric comorbidities as well as previous research on impulse control disorders and alcohol dependence. Further research is needed to better understand and classify CSB based on these findings.
背景与目的:强迫性行为(CSB)是一种常见行为,影响着3%至6%的人群,其特征是反复出现且难以抗拒的性冲动或行为,通常会导致负面的社会和情感后果。
在这项关于神经学数据的小型试点研究中,我们在诊断评估和计算机化神经认知测试方面,将13名患有CSB的个体与性别匹配的健康对照者进行了比较。
两组之间未发现显著差异。
这些数据与一种常见假设相矛盾,该假设认为CSB在认知上与无精神疾病共病的人不同,也与之前关于冲动控制障碍和酒精依赖的研究相矛盾。基于这些发现,需要进一步研究以更好地理解和分类CSB。
