Abstract

A previous study found a variety of unusual sexual interests to cluster in a five-factor structure, namely submission/masochism, forbidden sexual activities, dominance/sadism, mysophilia, and fetishism (Schippers et al., 2021). The current study was an empirical replication to examine whether these findings generalized to a representative population sample. An online, anonymous sample (N = 256) representative of the Dutch adult male population rated 32 unusual sexual interests on a scale from 1 (very unappealing) to 7 (very appealing). An exploratory factor analysis assessed whether similar factors would emerge as in the original study. A subsequent confirmatory factor analysis served to confirm the factor structure. Four slightly different factors of sexual interest were found: extreme, illegal and mysophilic sexual activities; light BDSM without real pain or suffering; heavy BDSM that may include pain or suffering; and illegal but lower-sentenced and fetishistic sexual activities. The model fit was acceptable. The representative replication sample was more sexually conservative and showed less sexual engagement than the original convenience sample. On a fundamental level, sexual interest in light BDSM activities and extreme, forbidden, and mysophilic activities seem to be relatively separate constructs.

具有异常性兴趣的因素分析:在代表性人群样本中的复制研究。
先前的一项研究发现,各种不寻常的性兴趣以五因素结构聚集在一起,即顺从/受虐狂、被禁止的性活动、支配/虐待狂、恋童癖和恋物癖(Schippers等人,2021)。目前的研究是一项实证复制,旨在检验这些发现是否适用于具有代表性的人群样本。一个代表荷兰成年男性群体的匿名在线样本(N=256)对32种不寻常的性兴趣进行了评分,评分范围从1(非常不吸引人)到7(非常吸引人)。一项探索性因素分析评估了是否会出现与原始研究相似的因素。随后的验证性因素分析用于确认因素结构。发现了四个略有不同的性兴趣因素:极端的、非法的和亲我的性活动;轻度BDSM,没有真正的痛苦或折磨;重度BDSM,可能包括疼痛或折磨;以及非法但判刑较低的恋物癖性活动。模型拟合可以接受。与最初的方便样本相比,具有代表性的复制样本在性方面更保守,性参与更少。从根本上讲,对轻度BDSM活动的性兴趣和极端、被禁止和亲自我的活动似乎是相对独立的结构。
