This inventory assesses women's body-related sexual self-esteem, perceptions of efficacy and entitlement to sexual desire and pleasure, and sexual self-reflection. The FSSI-P was administered to 527 Peruvian women, divided in two samples: university students (n = 298) and adult (n = 229) women. Results from confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) showed the structure of the original five correlated factors in both samples and multigroup CFA showed configural, metric and scalar invariance for the original five factor solution of the scale. The FSSI-P also demonstrated good reliability (Cronbach's α coefficients ranging from .74 to .86), and in the sample university students, significant correlations between the FSSI-P subscales and the positive and negative affect scales of the I-PANAS-SF (International Short Version of the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule) provided evidence of convergent and discriminant validity. Results showed that body-related self-esteem and sexual self-efficacy play a meaningful role in the experience of both positive and negative affect while sexual self-efficacy is negatively correlated to negative affect. Overall, the results indicate that the FSSI-P possesses adequate psychometric properties for use in the Peruvian context.","PeriodicalId":17171,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148983005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite this, parental perspectives remain underrepresented within the academic literature. This systematic review synthesized research examining how parents understand and interpret experiences of gender dysphoria during childhood and adolescence. Searches were conducted across multiple databases. Twenty-eight studies met the inclusion criteria. The literature consisted predominantly of qualitative studies and showed variation in recruitment methods and sampling strategies. Several themes emerged. Parents frequently described shock, confusion, grief, and uncertainty, followed by processes of meaning-making and adaptation. Social stigma and concerns regarding children's future were commonly reported. Many studies described trajectories toward acceptance and advocacy, although the literature relied heavily on highly self-selected samples, with supportive mothers overrepresented and dissenting or ambivalent perspectives underrepresented. Most studies were informed by gender-affirmative frameworks, and few examined parental experiences longitudinally or across differing explanatory frameworks. The findings suggest that parental experiences are complex and insufficiently represented within current research. Greater methodological and viewpoint diversity is needed to inform family-inclusive approaches to the care of children and adolescents experiencing gender dysphoria.","PeriodicalId":17171,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148912633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings indicated that attitudes toward infidelity and anxious and avoidant attachment strategies were positively related to infidelity. In contrast, infidelity was negatively correlated with greater marital bliss and devotion. The mediation analysis revealed the mediating role of anxious and avoidant attachment styles between psychological variables and infidelity. These findings highlight the roles of personality inclination and emotional insecurity in infidelity. This study highlights the need to address attachment issues to reduce the risk of infidelity.

Persistent symptoms may represent a plausible and potentially severe adverse drug reaction when temporality, persistence, phenotype specificity, and assessment of stronger alternative explanations support that interpretation. Genital sensory change, orgasmic or ejaculatory anhedonia, and a clearly documented change from baseline are high-value clinical features, but no single symptom is pathognomonic. Current evidence does not justify precise prevalence claims, mechanistic certainty, or curative-treatment recommendations. Because monitoring cannot guarantee prevention and abrupt discontinuation may cause withdrawal or psychiatric relapse, risk communication should be proportionate and individualized. Immediate priorities are shared decision-making, direct follow-up questioning, structured differential diagnosis, support for distress and relationship impact, and higher-quality adverse-event reports.","PeriodicalId":17171,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148880952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As it remains unknown whether communication quality moderates the IPV-sexual desire link, the present study examined the associations between both partners' IPV perpetration and dyadic sexual desire, and whether both partners' communication behaviors moderate these associations. A sample of 178 couples (18-29 years old) from the general population completed self-report questionnaires on IPV and sexual desire, and positive and negative communication behaviors were coded from a video-recorded date-planning discussion. Results revealed a positive association between a perpetrator's sexual IPV (i.e., verbal insistence to engage in sex) and their own dyadic sexual desire, as well as a negative association with the partner's dyadic sexual desire. Results also showed a complex pattern of interactions between sexual IPV and communication behaviors in relation to dyadic sexual desire, with some patterns consistent with protective processes and others consistent with more negative relational dynamics. Findings encourage further examination of how IPV relates to dyadic sexual desire and the role of communication behaviors in these associations.","PeriodicalId":17171,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148874540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonconsensual sexual contact between intimate partners nevertheless represents an important form of violence requiring greater understanding. To explore men's perceptions of sexual consent in intimate relationships, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 29 men receiving community-based treatment for emotion regulation difficulties and violent behavior in intimate partner or family contexts. Thematic analysis revealed three distinct perceptions of consent: as fundamental, taken for granted, and as a burden. Findings illustrate a perceived elasticity of sexual consent. While most participants recognized the importance of consent, some viewed it as implied within committed relationships, which could contribute to coercive situations. A minority expressed more dismissive attitudes toward consent, highlighting the limits of this elasticity and the potential emergence of nonconsensual sexual contact. Much like an elastic band, when stretched too far, it breaks, resulting in non-consensual sexual contact. These findings underscore the importance of addressing sexual consent within intimate relationships in interventions with men, while also promoting broader discussions of sexual well-being, emotional closeness, mutual connection, and relational intimacy.","PeriodicalId":17171,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148829758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
