Abstract

Sexual communication discrepancies (SCD) are associated with numerous sexual outcomes (e.g., sexual satisfaction and intimacy), with past findings suggesting that these benefits increase as SCD scores increase. However, sexual scripts theory suggests that individuals develop their own gendered scripts, with females and males experiencing sexual communication differently. Therefore, this study examined the association between SCD and sexual satisfaction. The results of a cross-sectional survey of individuals in sexually active romantic relationships (N = 496) revealed a significant curvilinear relationship between SCD and sexual satisfaction within the sexual issues factor of SCD among male participants. The implications of this study are discussed in the context of sexual communication research and clinical settings.

性脚本理论在性交际差异中的应用

性沟通差异(SCD)与许多性结果(如性满意度和亲密关系)有关，过去的研究结果表明，这些好处随着SCD分数的增加而增加。然而，性脚本理论认为，个体发展了自己的性别脚本，女性和男性对性交流的体验是不同的。因此，本研究考察了SCD与性满意度之间的关系。一项针对性活跃恋爱关系个体(N = 496)的横断面调查结果显示，在男性参与者的性问题因素中，性行为障碍与性满意度之间存在显著的曲线关系。本研究的意义是在性交流研究和临床设置的背景下讨论。
