ABSTRACT The Trauma Inventory for Partners of Sex Addicts (TIPSA) was hypothesized to have a latent factor structure that mirrors the core criteria for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Data were gathered from 3,199 self-selected respondents, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed in order to substantiate the hypothesized structure. Several modifications were made to the model, based on factor loadings and modification indices, in order to improve goodness-of-fit. In addition to the hypothesized model, 3 other factor models were also examined. Recommendations for revision of items contained in the TIPSA, as well as evaluation of additional psychometric properties, are also included.

ABSTRACT The Society for Advancement of Sexual Health (SASH) formed a committee to developing a working definition of sexual health for review by the executive board. The process of developing a definition, not based primarily on the absence of dysfunction or disease, encouraged review of some definitions, descriptions, and visions of the World Health Organization (WHO) and several professional associations. The result of the committee's efforts was a working definition for ongoing review and commentary.

ABSTRACT Data from 965 female and 661 male study participants were used to evaluate the effect of an orgasm experienced during oral sex prior to the age of 18. Both men and women who had experienced an orgasm before 18 were significantly more likely (than controls) to have experienced an orgasm during oral sex after the age of 18 after adjustment for innate differences in individual's ability to reach orgasm during oral sex. Women who had experienced an orgasm before 18 were significantly more likely to report that oral sex was the easiest way to reach orgasm as an adult.

ABSTRACT There is a debate about whether excessive internet use for sexual purposes should be considered a behavioral addiction. This qualitative study of 18 members (Mage = 37.22 years) of Sexaholics Anonymous and Sex Addicts Anonymous aimed to examine which symptoms were essential for treatment and how their phenomenological manifestations corresponded to the criteria of behavioral addiction. The study participants did not explicitly deal with tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. However, addressing the remaining criteria of addiction was the core of the recovery process, suggesting that in some persons it is relevant to treat this behavior as a behavioral addiction.

ABSTRACT Research demonstrates a high correlation between insecure attachment and sex addiction. Insecure attachment prevents the formation of secure relationships and disrupts affect regulation. These can be key factors in the maintenance of sexual addiction. Sex addiction treatment strategies may therefore benefit from incorporating a focus upon developing the capacity for secure attachment, alongside treating sexual compulsivity. This study examines the lived experiences of 6 sex addiction therapists who incorporate an attachment-informed approach in their work. The study aims to elaborate key components of an attachment-based approach that could potentially be incorporated into sex addiction treatment strategies for therapists working across different modalities.

ABSTRACT This is the first study in Iran to explore the facilitators of and barriers to compulsive sexual behavior from the perspectives of Iranian women. This qualitative study using the conventional content analysis approach was conducted in two urban areas of Iran. Data collection was performed using 31 in-depth individual interviews and three group interviews. It was found that facilitators were “family structure and strict rules,” “personal capacity and vulnerability,” “needs and motivations,” and “cultural and value factors.” In addition, barriers were “positive opportunities,” “appropriate education and positive role models.”

ABSTRACT This article introduces a framework for categorizing chronically problematic sexual behavior. It identifies patterns of commitment violations, values conflicts, diminished self-control, negative consequences, and lack of sexual responsibility as independent categories of chronically problematic sexual behavior. It recognizes that many forms of problematic sexual behavior can be reduced or eliminated by changing either sexual or nonsexual components of a person's life. This framework does not use the type or frequency of sexual behavior as an assessment variable. It neither postulates causes of problematic sexual behavior nor offers techniques for its reduction or elimination. This framework does not replace any existing theories or assistance models. Since it is capable of supporting theories representing many different perspectives, it expands the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration to widen the range of options available to more people who want to reduce or eliminate chronically problematic aspects of their sexual behavior.
