  • Title: Perceptions and treatment of sexual problems.
    Author: Nease DE, Liese BS.
    Journal: Fam Med; 1987; 19(6):468-70. PubMed ID: 3678697.
    Abstract:
    In this research, perceptions and beliefs which affect the family physician's treatment of sexual problems were studied. A 66-item questionnaire, the Survey of Sexual Problem Care (SSPC), was completed by 68 individuals. Respondents reported that they would be more likely to consult a family physician for the treatment of sexual problems than any other individual; however, few (11%) of those surveyed had actually sought treatment for sexual problems. Confidentiality was reported to be the most important characteristic in persons consulted for sexual problems, and treatment was more likely to be sought from family physicians when problems were believed to have a physical (vs. psychological) etiology. The implications of these results are discussed.
