Women's sexual difficulties have been associated with sexual-related dimensions. The present study aims to analyze the differences between women with and without sexual concerns, according to the Female Sexual Functioning Index cutoff score, on dyadic and solitary sexual desire and sexual satisfaction dimensions. A total of 314 women participated in the study and answered to a sociodemographic screening, to the Sexual Desire Inventory - 2, to the Female Sexual Functioning Index, and to the Sexual Satisfaction Scale for Women. Main findings showed that women with sexual concerns revealed lower levels of global sexual desire and partner-related sexual desire, experienced lower levels of communication and compatibility with sexual partner, and have more personal and relational sexual concerns. Overall, results enhance the role of dyadic and relational dimensions that allow to differentiate between women with and without sexual concerns. Clinical implications are discussed.
女性的性困难与性相关维度有关。本研究旨在根据女性性功能指数的截止分数,分析有和无性问题的女性在对偶和单独的性欲望和性满足维度上的差异。共有 314 名女性参与了这项研究,她们回答了社会人口统计学筛选问卷、性欲望量表-2、女性性功能指数和女性性满足量表。主要发现表明,有性问题的女性表现出较低的总体性欲望和伴侣相关的性欲望,在与性伴侣的沟通和兼容性方面体验较低,并且有更多的个人和关系性问题。总的来说,研究结果增强了对偶和关系维度的作用,有助于区分有和无性问题的女性。讨论了临床意义。
