Abstract(s)
O consumo moderado de álcool está associado a indicadores de melhor funcionamento sexual feminino e masculino. A Extroversão associa-se a maior consumo de álcool e a indicadores de melhor funcionamento sexual. Desta forma, o objetivo do presente estudo é investigar separadamente para ambos os sexos se, comparado com a ausência de consumo de álcool, o consumo moderado está associado a várias dimensões de melhor função sexual, e se estas associações são explicadas pela Extroversão. A amostra foi constituída por 212 mulheres e 93 homens. Considerou-se uma dose moderada de álcool até 14 bebidas por semana para as mulheres e 20 para os homens. A Extroversão foi medida através da versão reduzida do Inventário de Personalidade NEO revisto (NEO-FFI-20). O funcionamento sexual feminino foi avaliado por a versão portuguesas do Female Sexual Funtion Index. O Funcionamento sexual masculino foi avaliado por versões portuguesas do International Index of Erectile Function e o Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool. Não se verificaram associações significativas entre o consumo de álcool e a sexualidade e consumo de álcool e extroversão, na amostra masculina e feminina. Relativamente à extroversão e funcionamento sexual, verificou-se uma correlação entre esta e a frequência coital, na amostra masculina. Na amostra feminina, a extroversão relacionou-se com a frequência coital, satisfação, orgasmo lubrificação e excitação.
ABSTRACT: The moderate consumption of alcohol is associated with indicators of better male and female sexual functioning. The personality trait of extroversion was associated with greater consumption of alcohol and better sexual functioning. Thus, the objective of the present study is to investigate, for both sexes separately, if compared to the absence of alcohol consumption, the moderate consumption of alcohol is associated with various dimensions of sexual functioning, and if these associations are explained by extroversion. The participants of the study were 212 women and 93 men. A moderate alcohol consumption was considered to be 4 weekly drinks for women and 20 for men. Extraversion was measured by the NEO Personality Inventory Revised (NEO-FFI-20). The female sexual functioning was evaluated with the Female Sexual Function Index. The male sexual functioning was evaluated with the International Index of Erectile Function and the Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool. There were no significant associations between alcohol consumption and sexuality and alcohol consumption and extraversion in the male and female sample. Regarding extraversion and sexual functioning, a correlation was found between this and coital frequency in the male sample. In the female sample, extraversion was related to coital frequency, satisfaction, lubrication orgasm and excitation.
