This study explored the definitions of sexual boredom in a large community sample of Portuguese individuals. A thematic analysis of written responses to the question "What is sexual boredom for you?" was conducted with 653 participants aged 18 to 75 ( = 33.14; = 9.01) of multiple genders, sexual orientations, and relationship types. Three main themes were identified: definitions of sexual boredom, predisposing and maintenance factors of sexual boredom, and managing of sexual boredom. Sexual monotony, sexual desire, and hedonic value stand out as defining features of sexual boredom. Findings suggest the need of a multidimensional measure of sexual boredom.
本研究探讨了葡萄牙人群中对性厌倦的定义。对 653 名年龄在 18 至 75 岁之间(M = 33.14,SD = 9.01)的、具有多种性别、性取向和关系类型的个体,针对“性厌倦对你来说是什么?”这一问题的书面回答进行了主题分析。确定了三个主要主题:性厌倦的定义、性厌倦的诱发和维持因素,以及性厌倦的管理。性单调、性欲望和享乐价值是性厌倦的主要特征。研究结果表明,需要对性厌倦进行多维测量。
