Social rhythm and mental health
Social rhythm refers to the regularity with which a person participates in social activities during the week and has shown associations with depression, anxiety, and stress, as well as aspects of positive mental health, in cross-sectional studies. The aim of the present study is to examine these relationships longitudinally across three countries. Questionnaire data were obtained from a large-scale multi-national sample of 872 university students…
What Factors are Associated with Sexual Satisfaction, Distress, and Function in Couples? A Systematic Scoping Review of Dyadic Diary Studies
The increasingly common dyadic diary method uniquely captures how fluctuations in the thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of each member of a couple contribute to sexual outcomes within relationships. Dyadic diary methods assess these processes close in time to when they occur in a natural setting, and permit examination of within-person fluctuations in variables of interest while accounting for relational interdependence. The aim of this systemati…
Mediators of Change in Cognitive Behavioral and Mindfulness-Based Online-Interventions for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Dysfunction in Women
Low sexual desire is a common sexual problem among women. When it is accompanied by significant personal distress, it may be diagnosed as hypoactive sexual desire dysfunction (HSDD). Both cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based therapy (MBT) are effective treatments for HSDD when delivered in person or online. In this randomized controlled treatment study, CBT and MBT consisted of eight guided self-help modules delivered online, …
Psychometric Properties of a Computer-Administered Self-Report Version of the Diagnostic Interview for Sexual Dysfunctions in Women (Disex-F-SR)
The Diagnostic Interview for Sexual Dysfunctions in Women (DISEX-F) is a clinician-administered instrument allowing for an ICD-11 and DSM-5-compliant assessment of female sexual dysfunctions. Due to limited time and resources in practice and research, as well as patients' reticence in discussing sexual issues, a computer-administered self-report version was developed (DISEX-F-SR). This study aimed to collect initial data on its psychometric prope…

Divergierende Konzeptionen sexueller Funktionsstörungen in DSM-5 und ICD-11
Einleitung Obwohl in vielen Bereichen psychischer Störungen in den letzten Jahrzehnten eine Harmonisierung der Diagnosekategorien gemäß DSM-5 und ICD-11 erreicht wurde, gilt dies für den Bereich der sexuellen Funktionsstörungen nicht. Forschungsziele Anliegen dieser Übersicht ist ein Vergleich der Konzeptionen sexueller Funktionsstörungen in der ICD-11 und im DSM-5. In einem zweiten Schritt sollen Vor- und Nachteile beider Konzeptionen sowie dere…
A Qualitative Study of Women’s Experiences with Cognitive-Behavioral and Mindfulness-Based Online Interventions for Low Sexual Desire
Cognitive-behavioral (CBT) and mindfulness-based therapy (MBT) are among the most researched types of psychological interventions for low sexual desire in women. While both have been found effective in improving women's sexual desire, little is known about how women personally experience these treatments. To closely examine both approaches from a participant's perspective, semi-structured telephone-based interviews were conducted with 51 cis-wome…
Wie häufig werden Diagnosen aus dem Bereich der sexuellen Funktionsstörungen an deutschen Hochschulambulanzen für Psychotherapie an psychologischen Instituten vergeben
Einleitung Sexuelle Funktionsstörungen gelten als häufig. Gleichzeitig fehlen epidemiologische Daten zur Behandlungsprävalenz sexueller Funktionsstörungen in der ambulanten Psychotherapie. Im Rahmen eines Projekts zur Koordination der Datenerhebung an den deutschen Hochschulambulanzen für Psychotherapie wird erstmals eine Schätzung für dieses Behandlungssegment möglich. Forschungsziele Das Ziel dieser Studie ist die Darstellung der festgestellten…
Using Three Indirect Measures to Assess the Role of Sexuality-Related Associations and Interpretations for Women’s Sexual Desire
Theoretical models emphasize the role of both automatic appraisals (i.e., associations) and conscious appraisals (i.e., interpretations) for sexual desire. Studies on sexuality-related appraisals have not combined self-report measures and experimental paradigms in order to compare the relevance of associations or interpretations. The aim of this study was to assess the relative contribution of both associations and interpretations to the explanat…

Temporal Stability of Sexual Excitation and Sexual Inhibition in Women
Assessing Cognitive Appraisals Related to Sexual Function
Lifestyle choices and mental health
Our findings underline the importance of healthy lifestyle choices for improved psychological well-being and fewer mental health difficulties. Effects of lifestyle on mental health are comparable in German and Chinese students. Some healthy lifestyle choices (i.e., more frequent physical activity, non-smoking, regular social rhythm) are related to improvements in mental health over a 1-year period
Exploring the Impact of Personal and Partner Traits on Sexuality
Sexual difficulties are common among women and men and are associated with various mental and physical health problems. Although psychological traits are known to impact sexual attitudes and behavior, sexuality- and personality-related traits have not been jointly investigated to assess their relevance for sexual functioning in couples. The aim of this study was to investigate how psychological traits of two partners influence women's and men's s…
Does Repeated Testing Impact Concordance Between Genital and Self-Reported Sexual Arousal in Women
Satisfaction guaranteed? How individual, partner, and relationship factors impact sexual satisfaction within partnerships
Within committed relationships, a wide range of factors may challenge or facilitate sexual satisfaction. The aim of this study was to clarify which individual, partner-, and partnership-related aspects of a sexual relationship are crucial for the prediction of sexual satisfaction. The study included data of a representative sample of 964 couples from the general population. The actor-partner interdependence model was used to estimate actor and pa…

Multiple subjective and objective MF should be combined to assess the macrosystem's relationship with poor mental health more precisely. The relationship between MF and poor mental health indicates that the macrosystem should be taken into account as relevant context for mental health problems, too
Effects of a Mindfulness Task on Women’s Sexual Response
Mindfulness-based interventions are effective at improving symptoms of sexual dysfunction in women. The mechanisms by which mindfulness improves sexual function are less clear. The main objective of our study was to investigate the impact of a mindfulness task on sexual response in women. Forty-one women (mean age = 27.2, SD = 5.6) participated in two laboratory sessions that each included two erotic films and one attention task that were present…
