Abstract
Abstract Although paraphilias encompass a broad range of sexual interests, they often are regarded broadly as maladaptive. Doing so, however, may conceal relatively well-adjusted and satisfying forms of sexuality. Participants were recruited through Amazon Mechanical Turk and completed online questionnaires assessing paraphilic interests, sexual satisfaction, resilience, and attachment. Participants were 614 adults, aged 19 to 30 years (M = 26.08, SD = 3.18). Regression analyses demonstrated that atypical paraphilias, paraphilias related to nonconsensual sexual activities, and paraphilias related to BDSM explained a significant proportion of variance in sexual satisfaction. Findings suggest directions on the conceptualization and treatment of paraphilias.
期刊介绍:
Now being understood and treated as a significant and widespread disorder, sexual addiction and compulsivity is an enormously complex problem that requires a multidisciplinary approach from psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, family therapists, pastoral counselors, and law enforcement personnel. The first and only journal devoted to topics pertaining to this growing illness, Sexual Addiction & Compulsivity: The Journal of Treatment and Prevention is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal that provides a forum for research and clinical practice. As the source for information in this expanding new field, this journal will give practicing clinicians useful and innovative strategies for intervention and treatment from the necessary multidisciplinary perspective.
