Scientific studies of sexual behavior have pro liferated during recent decades. One period of research was ushered in by Freud; a second, by Kinsey; and perhaps a third is being innovated by Masters and Johnson. Four major problems, that demand solutions at this stage of research, are cited. They include the ethical problem of the effect of research on the subject, the ideological one of researchers' biases, the social one of the effects of the sexual revolution on behavior and on human fulfillment, and the normative one of the establishment of guideposts for sexual activity in a world in which sex and procreation are but slightly related
