General psychological processes (i.e., hopelessness) could explain the mechanisms behind the minority stressors-mental health association. Accordingly, this study aimed to test the complete gender minority stress model and the direct and indirect effects of minority stressors via hopelessness on mental health outcomes in trans individuals. Data were collected online from a convenience sample of 205 trans adults (18–74 years; M = 29.49, SD = 10.24), 72 (35.1%) of whom were trans men, 52 (25.4%) were trans women, and 81 (39.5%) were non-binary individuals. Results from structural equation modeling showed that distal stressors directly predicted mental health outcomes, except for depression. Internalized transphobia and negative expectations had positive indirect effects on depression, anxiety, and past-year and lifetime suicidality via hopelessness. Identity nondisclosure had negative indirect effects on depression, anxiety, and past-year suicidality through hopelessness. For substance use, hopelessness was not a significant mediator. Still, identity nondisclosure mediated distal stressors-substance use link. Findings suggest that hopelessness is a significant contributor to internalizing symptoms of trans individuals, making it a target for interventions to improve the mental health of trans people. The ameliorative impact of identity nondisclosure on both types of mental health outcomes should be considered and examined in further studies.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143915968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is evidence that CSB is related to child physical and sexual abuse. Sexual narcissism was linked with aggression, sex at a young age, and many partners for sex. This study examined the associations between childhood abuse and neglect, sexual narcissism, and hypersexual behavior among participants of a sex addiction support group and a group of control participants. Participants were 118 adults, including 72 men and 46 women, with a mean age of 32 years (SD = 9.32) and an age range of 18–59. The sample included 59 participants in the sex addiction group (sexaholics anonymous, SA), 36 men and 23 women with a mean age 31.41 years (SD = 8.13), and the control group from the general population included 36 men and 23 women with a mean age 32.47 years (SD = 10.42). Questionnaires included a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Hypersexual Behavior Inventory, the Sexual Narcissism Scale, and the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire. Childhood trauma was associated with sexual narcissism and with hypersexual behavior. A mediation model showed that sexual narcissism and child trauma significantly contributed to ratings of hypersexual behavior, and explained 60.3% of the variance of hypersexual behavior ratings. In addition, using the Bootstrapping method, the indirect effects found in this model showed that sexual narcissism increased the likelihood of hypersexual behavior, and it was a significant mediating factor between trauma and hypersexual behavior. In summary, this study indicates that sexual narcissism mediated the relationships between childhood trauma and hypersexual behavior. These findings explain the role of sexual narcissism and CSA in hypersexual behavior and it may have clinical implications for the treatment of CSB disorder.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143909882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants collected their own saliva samples before and after sex, which were then assayed for OXT. Dyadic analyses identified unique OXT trajectories for women and men and helped clarify mixed findings in prior work. Although time was not a significant predictor, the pattern of means indicated that women’s OXT concentrations were highest at the start and end of the sexual episode, whereas men’s OXT concentrations increased from the start to the end of the sexual episode. The findings also identified synchronous changes between women and men’s OXT, but only within the post-sex time interval (immediately post-sex, 20 min post-sex, and 40 min post-sex). Additionally, OXT concentrations pre- and post-sex were not associated with orgasm in ways that prior work would suggest.

Given that HIV transmission among Black women is primarily attributed to heterosexual sex, it is imperative to better understand factors that influence Black women’s sexual health decision-making. Previous studies have highlighted the influence of trust on sexual decision-making; however, scant literature focuses on trust in the relationships of Black women, for whom it may differentially impact their sexual health. Nine focus groups were conducted to examine how trust affects sexual health decision-making among Black women who have sex with men (N = 56). Qualitative analyses revealed three themes that highlight how trust can influence sexual behavior: (1) Trust Buffers Risk of Physical and Emotional Harm; (2) Broken Trust Encourages Safer Sex Behavior; (3) Trust Dynamics Influence Sexual Communication Anxiety. This analysis expands on extant literature by identifying how differing forms of trust can be understood and leveraged in the context of HIV/STI prevention and sexual health for women engaging in heterosexual sex. Implications of the study indicate that concepts of trust should be addressed in interventions seeking to improve the sexual health of Black women.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143889963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Older Person’s Description Form, the Body–Cathexis Scale, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale Short Form, and the Sexual Attitude Scale for Elderly People were used for data collection. For the data analysis, Pearson’s r correlation test, simultaneous multiple linear regression, and binary logistic regression were employed. The mean age of the participants was 69.97 ± 5.74 years, and 66.9% were between 65 and 74 years of age. Furthermore, 53.8% of the participants were male and 56.2% had two chronic illnesses. It was found that the participants’ age, body image, and self-esteem explained 84% of the total variance in their permissive attitudes toward sexuality. Furthermore, as the age of the older adults with chronic illnesses increased, there were negative effects on their permissive attitudes toward sexuality. However, as their body image and self-esteem levels improved, there was a positive effect on their permissive attitudes toward sexuality. These findings will be of benefit in encouraging and developing sexual health in older adults with chronic illnesses.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143884291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A sample of 1200 adults residing in Canada recruited from a Qualtrics panel reported their prior engagement in NCIID and completed a battery of questionnaires encompassing sexual motivators (e.g., paraphilias, hypersexuality) and facilitators (e.g., antagonistic personality traits, misogynistic attitudes toward sex and women, and alcohol use). The findings highlight NCIID as a relevant problem with 1 in 20 respondents reporting sharing or forwarding an intimate image without permission in the previous 12 months. When controlling for other risk factors, beliefs of sexual entitlement, hypersexuality, the antisocial facet of psychopathy, hostility toward women, and problematic alcohol use were associated with greater odds of self-reported NCIID perpetration. Overall, findings suggested an overlap between risk factors associated with in-person sexual offending and NCIID. Existing sexual offending interventions may therefore be applicable to the prevention and management of NCIID.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143880350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consistent with as reported by Gray (1972), I hypothesized a positive correlation between sexual excitability scores (SES) and the strength of excitatory appetitive sexual conditioning and impaired inhibitory appetitive sexual conditioning as well as a positive correlation between sexual inhibition (SIS1 and/or 2) and the strength of inhibitory appetitive sexual conditioning and impaired excitatory appetitive sexual conditioning. A total of 26 female-bodied and 27 male-bodied people served as participants. Sexual conditioning occurred outside of the laboratory. Specifically, over a two-week period, participants masturbated to orgasm after smelling either a vial with geranium or basil essential oil (CS+/CE odor). They also engaged in a comparable nonsexual behavior after smelling the other (CS−/CI) odor. Subjects provided baseline and post conditioning measures of odor affect, subjective and genital arousal to the odors, motivational approach toward the CSs, and unconditioned stimulus (US) expectancy along with SIS/SES scores, a measure of compulsive sexual behavior, and a measure of masturbatory guilt. Medium to large effect size CE and CI learning occurred when assessing affective ratings and subjective arousal but only for females, although there were similar trends for males. Medium to large effect size CE but not CI learning occurred in terms of genital arousal for both males and females. For female-bodied participants, the present study found individual differences in sexual conditioning consistent with Gray’s predictions. SES scores negatively predicted CI learning and SIS1 scores negatively predicted CE learning, at least for some measures. Conditioned responses seemed stronger in this study compared to previous human sexual conditioning research. The present results support the use of a sexual conditioning framework for understanding sexual response patterns.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"64 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143857532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Limited research suggests that difficulties with emotion regulation and distress tolerance as well as self-objectification are associated with increased drinking motives. However, it remains unclear how emotion regulation and distress tolerance influence the relationship between sexual self-objectification (a subset of self-objectification) and sex-related drinking motives in college women. The current study examined main and interactive effects of sexual self-objectification, emotion regulation difficulties, and distress tolerance abilities on both coping and enhancement sex-related drinking motives. College women (N = 351) recruited from four US universities completed a one-time online survey. Results demonstrated that women with greater sexual self-objectification tendencies were more motivated to drink to cope with sex-related distress and to drink to enhance sex. Moreover, the positive association between sexual self-objectification and drinking to cope with sex-related distress motives was strongest for women with high levels of distress tolerance compared to women with low levels of distress tolerance. These findings may help inform the design and implementation of programs on college campuses where alcohol use and risky sexual behavior are prevalent.","PeriodicalId":8327,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Sexual Behavior","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143836982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
