  • Title: Treatment of sexual dysfunctions in male-only groups: predicting outcome.
    Author: Dekker J, Dronkers J, Staffeleu J.
    Journal: J Sex Marital Ther; 1985; 11(2):80-90. PubMed ID: 4009731.
    Abstract:
    Forty men complaining of sexual dysfunctions were treated in male-only groups, using RET, masturbation exercises and social skills training. Sexual functioning improved and social anxiety decreased. Combining these data with previously reported data on 21 men, we tried to predict treatment outcome. Sexual functioning of men with a steady partner and men with varying partners improved; in men without partner(s) no effect could be demonstrated, probably due to a methodological artifact. Inhibited sexual desire was associated with a poor outcome. Several other variables (among them type of dysfunction, social anxiety, age, educational level) did not predict improvement of sexual functioning. This method seems to provide adequate treatment for various complaints of men with quite different backgrounds.
