Predictors and Moderators of Sexually Related Distress in Women with Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder
The degree of general distress reported by women with Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD) varies greatly, which might relate to their level of anxiety or depression. A variety of medical problems also has been associated with PGAD symptoms. The current study sought to determine the most significant predictor of sexually related distress and examine possible moderators. Participants were 51 women who met the criteria for PGAD and completed …

The Relationship Between Depressive Symptoms and Male Erectile Dysfunction
OBJECTIVE: Studies have shown that there is an association between depression and male erectile dysfunction (MED). However. these earlier studies suffer considerable methodological flaws including: a) lack of a multidisciplinary approach; b) poor sampling techniques; and finally, c) poor and variable measures of MED and depression. Our objectives are: a) to determine whether MED is associated with depressive symptoms and b) to determine whether t…
Ontology, Epistemology, and Private Ostensive Definition
When people learn a word through an ostensive definition, they learn the word through direct contact with objects of the type the word denotes. A child might learn the word 'robin' through an ostensive definition. A parent might direct the child's attention to a robin and tell the child the bird is a 'robin'. Philosophers ponder whether there might be words people learn through private ostensive definitions. A person who learns a psychological wo…
Impotence and Its Medical and Psychosocial Correlates
We provide current, normative data on the prevalence of impotence, and its physiological and psychosocial correlates in a general population using results from the Massachusetts Male Aging Study. The Massachusetts Male Aging Study was a community based, random sample observational survey of noninstitutionalized men 40 to 70 years old conducted from 1987 to 1989 in cities and towns near Boston, Massachusetts. Blood samples, physiological measures,…
Pleasure and Pain
Pain and pleasure are among the strongest candidates for unconditional, intrinsic values, one phenomenon bad and another good in every instance. When pondering the problem of evil, theologians regularly focus on pain, both physical and emotional. Pain is a felicitous example, since in itself pain seems self-evidently, indisputably, objectively bad; some people see evil in the essential nature of pain and suffering. We pity pain's victims, condemn…
Hedonic pluralism
Learning the Word `Toothache
Pain and masochism
