          Abstract

          Abstract Introduction: For sciences applied to sexual behaviour, research has traditionally reported a wide variety of non-unified pools with a lack of a gold standard classification. Therefore, this work aimed to propose a comprehensive taxonomy. Methods: A broad model was developed under expert criteria using a thematic analysis of the literature. After that, a systematic review was conducted to test and extend it within the given conditions of unification. Results: 36 variables of actions and surrounding context were found and allocated in 5 groups: partner description, combinatory variables, objects associated, paraphilic behaviours and actual behaviours. 650 reports were screened, and 143 were fully assessed. Of them, one was finally selected to add to the previous model. Discussion: A comprehensive taxonomy was brought in, along with a method to expand and retest it if necessary. It is aimed to set a commonly shared framework of repertoires to enable valid comparisons among samples or individuals.

          Resumen Introducción: Para las ciencias del comportamiento sobre la conducta sexual, tradicionalmente, la investigación ha expuesto conjuntos no unificados de repertorios en ausencia de clasificaciones fundamentales. Por ello, este trabajo trata de exponer una propuesta de taxonomía completa y fundamentada. Métodos: Se desarrolló una propuesta de largo alcance bajo criterio de expertos haciendo un análisis temático de la literatura. Después, se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática para ponerla a prueba y extenderla. Resultados: Se encontraron 36 variables descriptivas de las acciones y el contexto inmediato, y se situaron en 5 grupos: pareja (descripción), combinatorio, elementos u objetos (asociados), conductas parafílicas y conducta sexual. Se revisaron 650 estudios de los que 143 se evaluaron en profundidad. Sólo un elemento fue incluido al listado final tras la revisión sistemática. Discusión: Se obtuvo una taxonomía general del comportamiento sexual humano. El objetivo de este mapeo es facilitar mejores comparaciones entre muestras o individuos basándose en un criterio de referencia unificado.

            The impact of changing attitudes, norms, and self-efficacy on health-related intentions and behavior: A meta-analysis.

            Several health behavior theories converge on the hypothesis that attitudes, norms, and self-efficacy are important determinants of intentions and behavior. However, inferences regarding the relation between these cognitions and intention or behavior rest largely on correlational data that preclude causal inferences. To determine whether changing attitudes, norms, or self-efficacy leads to changes in intentions and behavior, investigators need to randomly assign participants to a treatment that significantly increases the respective cognition relative to a control condition, and test for differences in subsequent intentions or behavior. The present review analyzed findings from 204 experimental tests that met these criteria.

              A study of sexuality and health among older adults in the United States.

              Despite the aging of the population, little is known about the sexual behaviors and sexual function of older people. We report the prevalence of sexual activity, behaviors, and problems in a national probability sample of 3005 U.S. adults (1550 women and 1455 men) 57 to 85 years of age, and we describe the association of these variables with age and health status. The unweighted survey response rate for this probability sample was 74.8%, and the weighted response rate was 75.5%. The prevalence of sexual activity declined with age (73% among respondents who were 57 to 64 years of age, 53% among respondents who were 65 to 74 years of age, and 26% among respondents who were 75 to 85 years of age); women were significantly less likely than men at all ages to report sexual activity. Among respondents who were sexually active, about half of both men and women reported at least one bothersome sexual problem. The most prevalent sexual problems among women were low desire (43%), difficulty with vaginal lubrication (39%), and inability to climax (34%). Among men, the most prevalent sexual problems were erectile difficulties (37%). Fourteen percent of all men reported using medication or supplements to improve sexual function. Men and women who rated their health as being poor were less likely to be sexually active and, among respondents who were sexually active, were more likely to report sexual problems. A total of 38% of men and 22% of women reported having discussed sex with a physician since the age of 50 years. Many older adults are sexually active. Women are less likely than men to have a spousal or other intimate relationship and to be sexually active. Sexual problems are frequent among older adults, but these problems are infrequently discussed with physicians. Copyright 2007 Massachusetts Medical Society.
