One's self-views are powerful regulators of both cognitive processing and behavioral responding. Sexual self-schemas are cognitive generalizations about sexual aspects of the self. The bivariate sexual self-schema model, which posits independent ffects of positive and negative components of women's exual self-views, was tested. Three hundred eighteen female undergraduates completed anonymous questionnaires, including the Sexual Self-Schema Scale and assessments of sexual re-sponses and romantic attachment patterns. Results extended knowledge ofpositive-negative schema group contrasts and distinguished the response patterns of the aschematic and co-schematic groups. As predicted, aschematics reported low levels of sexual desire, arousal, and anxiety, and weak romantic attachments, whereas co-schematics endorsed conflicting positive and negative r sponses to sexual-romantic cues. In addition, path analyses supported the bivariate model. Finally, findings are related to theories of attachment representations within the cognitive hierarchy of the self. Research suggests that people's self-views act as a lens through which they perceive, organize, and interpret self-rele-vant information (Kelly, 1955; Markus, 1977; Markus & Zajonc, 1985). Well-articulated self-views, or self-schemas, influence
