AbstractThe objective of the present study was to examine the differences in some variables of psychological (depression, anxiety, physical self-esteem) and psychosexual (self-esteem as a sexual partner, satisfaction with sexual life, sexual preoccupation) adjustment in a sample of university students, as a function of gender, and divided into three groups: (1) those who had a stable partner; (2) those who did not have a stable partner but did have casual sexual relations; and (3) those who had neither a stable partner nor casual relationships. Participants were 980 students from a mid-size Spanish university, of both sexes (71.3% women, 28.7% men), aged between 18 and 26 years (M = 20.87, SD = 1.88), who completed an online battery of questionnaires. Differences were found in psychological and psychosexual adjustment variables depending on the reference group and both in men and women. Some of these differences were explained by having a partner and others by having sexual relations, regardless of the partner with whom they had sex. These differences and their impact on young people’s psychological adjustment and wellness should be taken into account when designing sexual health prevention and promotion programs.Keywords: Sexual relationshipsromantic partnercasual sexpsychosocial and psychosexual adjustmentuniversity students Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, Government of Spain, under grant PGC2018-097086-A-I00; and Government of Aragon (Department of Science, University and Knowledge Society).

AbstractObjectives Sexualized Drug Use (SDU) consists of using any drug purposely before or during sex with the intent of modifying sex experiences. SDU is especially practiced among Gay and Bisexual Men who have Sex with Men (GBMSM). This study aims to review the relevant literature to identify and summarize the reasons reported by GBMSM to engage in SDU.Methods A systematic review of the literature using PubMed/Medline, Scopus, Google Scholar, and PsycINFO, comprising qualitative and quantitative papers published between 2010 and 2022, was conducted with a narrative synthesis of the findings. PRISMA guidelines were followed.Results Our search identified 1400 publications, of which 23 were included. Reasons to engage in SDU were aggregated as follows: (1) Enhancing sexual sensations and performance, (2) Achieving hedonic mental and emotional states, (3) Tackling negative thoughts and feelings, and (4) Social motivations. Different sample methods and ways of asking for motivations may limit the internal validity of these conclusions.Conclusion Both individual and social factors are involved in the decision to engage in SDU. SDU practices should not be medicalized, however therapeutic support if needed should provide multidisciplinary, pleasure-centered, harm-reducing care interventions, specifically designed for these minorities of GBMSM.Keywords: Sexualized drug usechemsexslamsexmen who have sex with menmotivations Disclosure statementThe authors report no conflicts of interest.

目的性化用药(sexalized Drug Use, SDU)是指在性行为前或性行为中故意使用药物以改变性体验的行为。SDU尤其在男同性恋和双性恋男性(GBMSM)中实施。本研究旨在回顾相关文献，找出并总结GBMSM从事SDU的原因。方法系统检索PubMed/Medline、Scopus、Google Scholar和PsycINFO等网站2010 - 2022年间发表的定性和定量论文，并对结果进行叙述性综合分析。遵循PRISMA准则。结果我们检索到1400篇文献，其中23篇被收录。参与性行为的原因可归纳为:(1)增强性感觉和性表现;(2)获得享乐的精神和情绪状态;(3)克服消极的思想和情绪;(4)社会动机。不同的样本方法和询问动机的方式可能会限制这些结论的内部有效性。结论个体因素和社会因素共同影响了患者选择SDU的决定。SDU的实践不应该被医学化，但是如果需要的话，治疗支持应该提供多学科的、以快乐为中心的、减少伤害的护理干预，专门为这些GBMSM的少数群体设计。关键词:性化吸毒化学性行为男男性行为动机披露声明作者报告无利益冲突。作者独自负责论文的内容和写作。其他信息资金作者报告没有与本文所述工作相关的资金。

AbstractIntroduction: Mobile dating apps emerged with the development of technology, for example, Blued in China, becoming a new risk field for gay men in the AIDS era. Users use social apps to chat online and date offline to achieve the satisfaction of lust or sexual practice, but the risk of AID looms over the whole process of using apps. Methods: Nineteen interviewees were invited to participate in this study, which included gay men who were using or had used Blued. The content of the semi-structured interviews focused on the relationship between gay social apps and HIV risk. Results: The study finds Blued interweaved with sex, risk, and stigma. Blued is sexualized due to sexual intentions and practices. There is also a sexual stratification of risk with Blued and its users based on socioeconomic factors. Users experience a dilemma between pursuing sex while being concerned about latent risk within a context of stigmatization. Conclusions: Blued is sexualized in terms of the process of stimulating sexual gratification and facilitating sexual practices. The experience of Blued is an example of sexual stratification, and a structure of desire based on app users and app uses. Furthermore, the social stigma against men who have sex with men is transferred to Blued, which bears the stigma of “AIDS-Blued” with a dual stigma—HIV-related and homosexual stigma. However, with the authorized approval of Blued in public health, Blued could play an essential role in HIV/AIDS prevention and control.Keywords: BluedsexHIV/AIDSriskstigma NotesAcknowledgmentsThe author would like to thank all participants for their contributions to the study and thank the anonymous reviewers for their thoughtful and constructive comments on the article.Notes1 This report can be found at: https://weekly.caixin.com/2019-01-04/101366501.html.2 Retrived from: https://williamsinstitute.law.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/Global-Acceptance-Index-LGBTI-Nov-2021.pdf3 Users usually receive a message from Blued, saying “healthy dating, HIV prevention, keeping privacy, and avoiding property damage” triggered by sensitive words and pictures.4 In fact, I followed the ethical standards, and they were not real family names of my interviewees to avoid any disclosure.5 Retrived from: https://weekly.caixin.com/2019-01-04/101366501.html.Additional informationFundingThe author(s) reported there is no funding associated with the work featured in this article.

AbstractObjectives This study aimed to investigate the moderating role of sexual attitudes in the association between online sexual activity (OSA) and problematic pornography use (PPU) in the Chinese context. Specifically, we examined whether incongruence stemming from attitudes (i.e., disapproval of nonmarital and casual sex but engaging in OSA) amplifies the perception of PPU.Methods We recruited two samples of Chinese men, one from the community (N1 = 525) and the other comprising help-seeking individuals (N2 = 578).Results Sexual attitudes moderate the relationship between OSA and PPU in both samples, with the predictive influence of OSA on PPU weakening among individuals with a relatively permissive attitude (scored one SD above the mean of sexual attitudes), and strengthened among individuals with a relatively conservative attitude (scored one SD below the mean of sexual attitudes).Conclusions In the conservative sexual cultural context of China, a relatively conservative sexual attitude might strengthen the association between OSA and PPU.Keywords: Online sexual activity (OSA)problematic pornography use (PPU)sexual attitudesconservative cultural context Institutional Review Board StatementThe study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and approved by the Ethics Committee of Department of Applied Psychology, Fuzhou University (protocol code: 20220105).Declaration of interestThe authors report no conflicts of interest.
