This study compared the effectiveness of a skill-based bibliotherapy intervention and a placebo pill intervention purported to be efficacious in increasing women's sexual desire. Forty-five participants were randomized into the two groups after completing pretest measures of sexual desire and functioning. After completing their interventions, participants completed 6-week posttest and 12-week follow-up measures. Results demonstrated that when compared to the placebo pill group, the bibliotherapy group made statistically greater gains from pretest to follow-up in sexual desire and satisfaction. Nevertheless, the placebo pill group evidenced short-term improvements in sexual desire over time. Findings have implications for future research and current treatments for low sexual desire in women.
本研究比较了基于技能的图书疗法干预和据称能提高女性性欲的安慰剂丸干预的效果。45 名参与者在完成性欲和性功能的预测试量后被随机分配到两组。完成干预措施后,参与者完成了 6 周的后测和 12 周的随访测量。结果表明,与安慰剂丸组相比,图书疗法组在性欲和满意度方面从预测试到随访的统计上有更大的提高。尽管如此,安慰剂丸组在性欲方面也表现出了随着时间的推移的短期改善。研究结果对未来的研究和当前治疗女性性欲低下具有启示意义。
