Labor of Love
dissimilar emotion work and whether specific patterns of couples' similarity may uniquely contribute to their relationship and sexual well-being. We found no evidence of congruence effects; however, the response surface findings suggested that when both partners reported higher levels of emotion work, couples reported greater relationship satisfaction and sexual well-being (i.e. higher sexual desire and lower sexual distress), but also greater re…
Psychometric Properties of the Portuguese Version of the Orgasm Rating Scale in the Context of Solitary Masturbation
Dyadic Validation of the Partner Emotion Work Scale
Emotion work—behaviors that enhance a partner's emotional well‐being—is central to couples' relational well‐being. The Partner Emotion Work (PEW) Scale is a well‐established measure of perceived emotion work, but no Portuguese version exists, and its validity has not been examined dyadically. This study translated, culturally adapted, and validated the PEW for use in Portugal in a sample of romantic couples, while also exploring its factor struct…
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…
Sexual Satisfaction in Spanish Same-Sex Couples
The Interpersonal Exchange Model of Sexual Satisfaction (IEMSS) is a theoretical framework that conceptualizes sexual satisfaction in couple relationships by including both sexual and non-sexual interpersonal variables. The IEMSS has not been validated dyadically in same-sex couples. This study aimed to examine the sexual satisfaction of 228 Spanish same-sex couples (116 male dyads and 112 female dyads) from the IEMSS perspective. Both men and wo…
Longitudinal associations between relational and sexual well‐being in couples transitioning to parenthood
There is limited understanding of the dynamic between relational and sexual well‐being as couples adjust to new parenthood, despite this being a vulnerable period for couples' relationships. This study was aimed at examining the bidirectional links between relationship quality and sexual well‐being (i.e., sexual satisfaction, sexual distress) across the transition to parenthood. We assessed new parent couples ( N = 257) across four time points (t…
Connecting through touch
Touch is a universal nonverbal action often used by romantic partners to demonstrate affection and care for each other. Attitudes toward touch might be particularly relevant across periods of relational strain-such as the transition to parenthood-when couples face many novel stressors and shifting priorities which can interfere with their sexual and affectionate experiences. New parent couples ( N = 203) completed self-report measures online acro…
Biopsychosocial Predictors of Couples’ Trajectories of Sexual Function and Sexual Distress Across the Transition to Parenthood
The Role of Men’s Sexual Beliefs on Sexual Function/Dysfunction
Changes in Intimacy and Sexuality During the Covid-19 Pandemic
This qualitative study explores experiences of intimacy and sexuality during the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic of 3357 participants from Croatia, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, France, Germany, Portugal, Sweden, and Turkey. Data were collected through open-ended questions within a survey on sexuality during the pandemic. Based on a reflexive thematic analysis three themes occurred. The first theme No change was described by 41% when …
Sexual Health and the Pandemic Crisis
Recent findings suggest that the current COVID-19 pandemic has a potential negative impact in several areas of life, including sexual health. However, less is known about the psychological dimensions that may work as vulnerability/protective factors for the development of sexual problems in the current pandemic. The current study used a longitudinal design to examine the role played by personality trait factors (neuroticism, extraversion) as well…
Is Expectant Couples’ Similarity in Attitudes to Sex during Pregnancy Linked to Their Sexual Well-being? A Dyadic Study with Response Surface Analysis
Despite sexual activity being safe for the majority of expectant couples (i.e., the pregnant individual and their partner), negative attitudes toward having sex during pregnancy are common and are related to lower sexual well-being across this vulnerable life period. Using dyadic response surface analysis in a sample of 254 first-time expectant couples, we examined the degree to which expectant partners demonstrated similar versus dissimilar atti…
