Thirty organically impotent men were contrasted with 21 psychogenically impotent men and 17 normal controls. Distinctions among sexual attitudes, sexual behaviors, and sexual interests were evaluated on the Sex Form. Results suggest that impotent men can be reliably distinguished from non-impotent men on the basis of their use of activity rather than fantasy in coping with life's problems and their interest in receiving treatment for their condition. Separate comparisons between the control group and the two impotent groups further suggest that both can be reliably distinguished from normals. It is more difficult, however, to distinguish between organically and psychogenically impotent men on the basis of sexual interests, attitudes, and behavior. The findings suggest, however, that impotent men generally and psychogenically impotent men in particular tend to be individuals who have relatively low sexual drive, diminished sexual knowledge, and who are prone to active ways of coping with stress. The results are discussed in light of previous findings.
30名器质性阳痿男性与21名心因性阳痿男性以及17名正常对照者进行了对比。通过性量表对性态度、性行为和性兴趣方面的差异进行了评估。结果表明，阳痿男性能够基于他们在应对生活问题时采用行动而非幻想的方式以及对自身状况接受治疗的兴趣，与非阳痿男性可靠地区分开来。对照组与两个阳痿组之间的单独比较进一步表明，这两组都能与正常人可靠地区分开来。然而，基于性兴趣、态度和行为来区分器质性阳痿男性和心因性阳痿男性则更为困难。不过，研究结果表明，一般而言阳痿男性，尤其是心因性阳痿男性往往是那些性欲相对较低、性知识匮乏且倾向于采用积极方式应对压力的个体。结合先前的研究结果对这些结果进行了讨论。
