Despite a lack of consensus in the field about how best to conceptualize problematic pornography use, psychometric instruments have nonetheless been developed to assess the construct. The present systematic review aimed to (i) identify psychometric tools that have been developed to assess problematic pornography use; (ii) summarize key characteristics, psychometric properties, and strengths and limitations of instruments for problematic pornography use; (iii) compare the instruments' theoretical conceptualizations of problematic pornography use; and (iv) evaluate each instrument on their ability to assess various core components of addiction. In this article, 22 instruments assessing problematic pornography use were reviewed. Results indicated that while the instruments had different conceptualizations of problematic pornography use, addiction still emerged as the most common theoretical framework used by the instruments. Five of the most commonly assessed addiction components across the different instruments were (1) impaired control, (2) salience, (3) mood modification, (4) interpersonal conflict, and (5) general life conflict. Contextual factors that may potentially affect the assessment of problematic pornography use and recommendations for researchers and clinicians are discussed.
尽管该领域对于如何最好地概念化问题性色情制品使用存在共识,但仍开发了心理计量工具来评估这一结构。本系统综述旨在:(i)确定已开发用于评估问题性色情制品使用的心理计量工具;(ii)总结工具的主要特点、心理计量特性以及问题性色情制品使用工具的优缺点;(iii)比较工具对问题性色情制品使用的理论概念化;(iv)评估每个工具评估成瘾的各种核心成分的能力。在本文中,回顾了 22 种评估问题性色情制品使用的工具。结果表明,尽管这些工具对问题性色情制品使用的概念化不同,但成瘾仍然是这些工具最常用的理论框架。在不同的工具中,最常评估的五个成瘾成分是(1)受损控制,(2)突出性,(3)情绪调节,(4)人际冲突,以及(5)一般生活冲突。讨论了可能影响问题性色情制品使用评估的情境因素以及研究人员和临床医生的建议。
