Impulsivity, a multidimensional construct characterized by rash decision-making and difficulty delaying gratification, is a trait of externalizing disorders (e.g., attention-deficit/hyperactivity, disruptive, oppositional defiant, and conduct disorders) and has been associated with risk-taking behaviors. However, its association with risky sexual behaviors in this population remains limited. This observational study examined the association between impulsivity and early sexual behaviors in 96 adolescents (male n = 63) with externalizing disorders. Impulsivity at baseline was assessed using the Urgency-Premeditation-Perseverance-Sensation Seeking-Positive Urgency (UPPS-P) scale. Engagement in early sexual behaviors was categorized into three groups: sexting; other sexual behaviors (e.g., genital touch, oral sex); and sexual intercourse. Relative risk (RR) was estimated using unadjusted and adjusted (A) modified Poisson regressions with robust variance. Adjusted models included biological sex, family history of substance use, and parental education as potential confounders. Significant associations were found between sexting and both overall impulsivity (ARR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.02–1.21) and sensation seeking (ARR = 1.45, 95% CI = 1.18–1.79). Sensation seeking was also significantly associated with other sexual behaviors (ARR = 1.44, 95% CI = 1.01–2.08). No significant associations were found between impulsivity subscales and sexual intercourse. These findings highlight the role of sensation seeking in early sexting and other sexual behaviors among adolescents with externalizing disorders. Interventions targeting sensation seeking may be beneficial for reducing sexual risk-taking in high-risk youth. Future studies are needed to understand the effects of impulsivity in risky sexual behaviors over time, particularly across late adolescence and young adulthood in this population.
冲动性是一种以草率决策和难以延迟满足为特征的多维结构，是外化障碍（如注意力缺陷/多动、破坏性、对立违抗和行为障碍）的一种特征，与冒险行为有关。然而，在这一人群中，它与危险性行为的关联仍然有限。本观察性研究调查了96例外化障碍青少年（男性63例）冲动与早期性行为之间的关系。基线时的冲动性采用紧急-预谋-坚持-感觉寻求-积极紧急（UPPS-P）量表进行评估。早期性行为被分为三类：发性短信；其他性行为（如生殖器接触、口交）；还有性交。相对风险（RR）使用未调整和调整(A)修正泊松回归进行稳健方差估计。调整后的模型包括生物性别、药物使用家族史和父母教育作为潜在的混杂因素。性短信与总体冲动（ARR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.02-1.21）和寻求感觉（ARR = 1.45, 95% CI = 1.18-1.79）之间存在显著关联。感觉寻求也与其他性行为显著相关（ARR = 1.44, 95% CI = 1.01-2.08）。冲动性量表与性行为之间无显著关联。这些发现强调了感觉寻求在外化障碍青少年早期性短信和其他性行为中的作用。针对感觉寻求的干预措施可能有助于减少高风险青少年的性冒险行为。随着时间的推移，冲动对危险性行为的影响需要进一步的研究，特别是在这个人群的青春期晚期和成年早期。

Amid rising global rates of loneliness and romantic distress, many individuals seek connection with romantic chatbots-AI-driven companions designed to simulate intimate interactions. Although chatbot-assisted interventions have shown promise in mental health care, their therapeutic potential for addressing romantic distress remains largely underexplored. Men experiencing involuntary singlehood often report elevated psychological, relational, and sexual distress, yet many avoid conventional therapy, underscoring the need for innovative, accessible interventions. This mixed-methods proof-of-concept study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, adequacy, and preliminary effects of a one-session therapist-guided chatbot intervention targeting involuntary singlehood-related distress. Thirty-two Canadian men reporting involuntary singlehood completed a three-level intervention program based on a romantic chatbot simulating dating app interactions: (1) initiating contact, (2) practicing self-disclosure, and (3) navigating romantic rejection. Outcomes were assessed using validated measures of relational, psychological, and sexual distress at baseline (T1), one-month (T2), and three-month (T3) post-intervention follow-ups, while acceptability and adequacy were assessed during and immediately following the intervention through standardized instruments and open-ended questions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, repeated-measures ANOVAs, and qualitative content analysis. Significant reductions were observed in relational, psychological, and sexual distress (moderate-to-large effect sizes). Most participants rated the intervention format as appropriate and found the chatbot interactions realistic, reflective of real-life romantic challenges, and beneficial for developing romantic skills. These findings suggest that this chatbot-assisted intervention may hold promise in accompanying individuals navigating involuntary singlehood. Future randomized controlled trials need to confirm its clinical effects, optimize its technical architecture and therapeutic delivery (e.g., through modules tailored to individual needs), and assess skill transfer to real-life contexts.

Online sexual activities (OSA) are widespread and linked to both benefits and risks for sexual health. Experiences with OSA often differ by gender, potentially leading to distinct perceived outcomes. Understanding these differences is essential for tailoring education, prevention, and intervention strategies. However, current data on OSA use and their subjective outcomes among adults in Germany are limited. To address this gap, this study aimed to assess gender-specific prevalence, experiences, and perceived outcomes of OSA. A national online sample of 2832 adults in Germany (aged 18-65; 50% women, 50% men) reported in December 2022 on their 12-month prevalence of OSA overall, their engagement and subjective experiences with specific types of OSA, and the overall perception of positive and negative impact of OSA on their personal lives. A total of 62% of participants reported engaging in at least one type of OSA in the past 12 months, with sexual entertainment and sexual information being the most common types. Men were significantly more likely than women to engage in OSA overall and across most types, except for purchasing sex-related products. Subjective experiences with specific types of OSA were predominantly positive and largely similar between genders. Both men and women generally evaluated the impact of OSA on their personal lives as more positive than negative, with men reporting slightly higher perceived benefits. Results illustrate that OSA are common and generally experienced positively among men and women. Sexual health professionals need to address not only potential risks but also the personal benefits of OSA in their work.

Suicide is the third leading cause of death among adolescents and young adults (aged 10–24). Among sexual minorities, various forms of bullying victimization are strongly associated with suicide. This review aimed to explore the relationship between school bullying and suicide-related behaviors among sexual minority adolescents. We searched PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Cochrane, Scopus, APA PsycInfo, and ProQuest databases from inception to June 16, 2025. A meta-analysis was performed to combine odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs. The heterogeneity of the studies was assessed using the I2 statistic. Publication bias was evaluated using a funnel plot analysis and Egger's test. A meta-regression model was developed to examine the associations between school bullying and suicide-related behaviors. This systematic review and meta-analysis included 11 studies, involving a sample of 113,039 sexual minority students. The results revealed that, among sexual minorities, bullying was positively associated with suicidal ideation (OR 2.36, 95% CI 1.65, 3.36, p < .001) and suicide attempts (OR 2.30, 95% CI 1.71, 3.11, p < .001) but was not significantly associated with self-harm (OR 1.56, 95% CI 0.82, 2.96, p = .06). Sexual minorities who reported being bullied in schools are at a higher risk of suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide plan. This finding suggests that, to reduce suicide risk in sexual minority students, it is crucial to focus on and prevent school bullying.
自杀是青少年和青年（10-24岁）死亡的第三大原因。在性少数群体中，各种形式的欺凌受害者与自杀密切相关。本研究旨在探讨性少数青少年校园欺凌与自杀相关行为的关系。我们检索了PubMed、Web of Science、EMBASE、Cochrane、Scopus、APA PsycInfo和ProQuest数据库，检索时间从成立到2025年6月16日。进行荟萃分析，结合优势比（ORs）和95% ci。使用I2统计量评估研究的异质性。采用漏斗图分析和Egger检验评估发表偏倚。建立了一个元回归模型来检验校园欺凌与自杀相关行为之间的关系。这项系统回顾和荟萃分析包括11项研究，涉及113039名性少数学生的样本。结果显示，在性少数群体中，欺凌与自杀意念呈正相关(OR 2.36, 95% CI 1.65, 3.36, p <。001)和自杀企图(OR 2.30, 95% CI 1.71, 3.11, p <。001)，但与自我伤害无显著相关（OR 1.56, 95% CI 0.82, 2.96, p = 0.06）。在学校被欺负的性少数群体有更高的自杀意念、自杀企图和自杀计划的风险。这一发现表明，为了降低性少数学生的自杀风险，关注和防止校园欺凌至关重要。

With this study, we explored the complex interplay between sexual preference, behavior, and viewing time (VT) as an assessment tool for pedohebephilic interest by using a 2 × 2 factorial design. The design included two factors: sexual preference (pedohebephilic vs. teleiophilic) and history of child sexual abuse (with vs. without a prior child sexual offense [CSO]). A total of 320 men participated, including individuals with a sexual preference for children ( n = 151) and those with a preference for adults ( n = 169), encompassing those who had committed a CSO ( n = 102) and those who had not ( n = 218). By crossing these factors, the study investigated how preference and offense history interact to influence VT. Both ipsatized and raw VT data were analyzed. The clinical diagnosis of pedohebephilia and a prior CSO showed a significant association with the VT index. The study also revealed methodological insights, with raw VT data showing a primary effect of pedohebephilia and of CSO not visible in the ipsatized data. In a subsample of men with pedohebephilia, those who had not committed CSOs had longer absolute and relative VTs. In a subsample of men with teleiophilia, those who had committed CSO showed lower absolute and relative VTs for adults compared to healthy controls. They also showed higher relative VTs for Tanner stages 2–3. This study deepened our understanding of the complex interplay between sexual preference, behavior, and assessment methodologies, suggesting pathways for developing targeted interventions and preventive strategies for CSOs.

Posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) are associated with adverse relationship outcomes, including sexual satisfaction. This is particularly true for veteran samples; yet, these associations have rarely been studied in dyadic contexts. This study aimed to examine the individual and dyadic associations among DSM-5 PTSS clusters and sexual satisfaction in trauma-exposed, veteran couples. The study included 125 treatment-seeking veterans (i.e., men) and their civilian partners (i.e., women), where at least one partner reported a lifetime history of trauma exposure. An actor-partner interdependence model was conducted to test the individual and dyadic associations among partners' PTSS clusters and sexual satisfaction. Veterans' negative alterations in cognition and mood symptoms were adversely associated with their own sexual satisfaction and their partners' sexual satisfaction whereas veterans' intrusion symptoms showed a favorable association with their partners' sexual satisfaction. These findings emphasize the dyadic context of traumatic stress and sexual well-being for veterans and their romantic partners. Interventions targeting veterans' PTSS and both partners' sexual satisfaction may be particularly beneficial for trauma-exposed veteran couples.
