Faking orgasm by women reportedly occurs quite frequently, with both relationship characteristics and orgasmic difficulty being significant predictors.
We explored women's motives that might mediate the associations between orgasmic difficulty and relationship satisfaction on the one hand, with the frequency of faking orgasm on the other.
In a study of 360 Hungarian women who reported "ever" faking orgasm during partnered sex, we assessed the direct and indirect (mediated) associations between orgasmic difficulty, relationship satisfaction, and the frequency of faking orgasm.
Determination of motives that mediate the association between orgasmic difficulty and the frequency of faking orgasm, and the association between relationship satisfaction and the frequency of faking orgasm.
Increased orgasmic difficulty was directly related to increased frequency of faking orgasm (β = 0.37; P < .001), and each variable itself was related to a number of motives for faking orgasm. However, the only motive assessed in our study that mediated the relationship between orgasmic difficulty and the frequency of faking orgasm was insecurity about being perceived as abnormal or dysfunctional (indirect effect: β = 0.13; P < .001). A similar pattern emerged with relationship satisfaction and frequency of faking orgasm. These two variables were directly related in that lower relationship satisfaction predicted higher frequency of faking orgasm (β = -0.15; P = .008). Furthermore, while each variable itself was related to a number of motives for faking orgasm, the only motive assessed in our study that mediated the relationship between the 2 variables was insecurity about being perceived as abnormal or dysfunctional (indirect effect: β = -0.06; P = .008).
Insecurity related to being perceived as abnormal or deficient, along with sexual communication, should be addressed in women with a history of faking orgasm but who want to cease doing so.
The sample was relatively large and the online survey adhered to best practices. Nevertheless, bias may result in sample characteristics when recruitment is achieved primarily through social media. In addition, the cross-sectional sample prevented causal determination and represented Western-based values.
The associations between orgasmic difficulty and faking orgasm, and between relationship satisfaction and faking orgasm, are both direct and indirect (mediated). The primary motive for mediating the indirect association between the predictor variables and the frequency of faking orgasm was the insecurity about being perceived as deficient or abnormal.

据报道，女性假装性高潮的情况相当常见，关系特征和性高潮困难都是重要的预测因素。
我们探讨了女性的动机，这些动机可能一方面介导性高潮困难与关系满意度之间的关联，另一方面介导假装性高潮的频率。
在一项对360名匈牙利女性的研究中，这些女性报告在有伴侣的性行为中 “曾经” 假装过性高潮，我们评估了性高潮困难、关系满意度与假装性高潮频率之间的直接和间接（中介）关联。
确定介导性高潮困难与假装性高潮频率之间关联以及关系满意度与假装性高潮频率之间关联的动机。
性高潮困难增加与假装性高潮频率增加直接相关（β = 0.37；P <.001），并且每个变量本身都与一些假装性高潮的动机相关。然而，我们研究中评估的唯一介导性高潮困难与假装性高潮频率之间关系的动机是对被视为异常或功能失调的不安全感（间接效应：β = 0.13；P <.001）。关系满意度与假装性高潮频率也出现了类似模式。这两个变量直接相关，即关系满意度较低预示着假装性高潮频率较高（β = -0.15；P =.008）。此外，虽然每个变量本身都与一些假装性高潮的动机相关，但我们研究中评估的唯一介导这两个变量之间关系的动机是对被视为异常或功能失调的不安全感（间接效应：β = -0.06；P =.008）。
对于有假装性高潮史但希望停止这样做的女性，应解决与被视为异常或不足相关的不安全感以及性沟通问题。
样本相对较大，在线调查遵循了最佳实践。然而，当主要通过社交媒体进行招募时，可能会导致样本特征存在偏差。此外，横断面样本妨碍了因果关系的确定，并且代表了西方价值观。
性高潮困难与假装性高潮之间以及关系满意度与假装性高潮之间的关联既是直接的也是间接的（中介的）。介导预测变量与假装性高潮频率之间间接关联的主要动机是对被视为不足或异常的不安全感。赫韦西·K、霍瓦特·Z、米克洛斯·E等。介导关系满意度、性高潮困难与假装性高潮频率之间关联的动机。性医学2022；10：100568。
