Assessment of sexual behaviors using the paired-comparisons method in a sample from Spain
Sexual attitudes have been inferred from test and scale scores, where all items have the same value. But these items could contribute differentially in the construct measure, being able to capture these differences between items through stimulus-centered scaling. The aim of the study was to verify i...

But these items could contribute differentially in the construct measure, being able to capture these differences between items through stimulus-centered scaling. The aim of the study was to verify if six stimuli referring to sexual behaviors have different scale values (weights) in a continuum of attitudinal valuation. Five hundred people selected by quota sampling participated. A questionnaire consisting of 15 pairs of sexual behaviors was applied individually. People had to select from each pair the behavior they valued more positively. The results show that the sexual behaviors’ order in the valuation continuum is similar in the three subsamples (with steady partner, with casual partner, and without partner). Conventional behaviors have less weight in the construct than unconventional behaviors. Las actitudes sexuales se han inferido a partir de las puntuaciones extraídas de tests, donde a todos los ítems se les asigna el mismo valor. Estos ítems podrían contribuir diferencialmente en la medida del constructo, pudiendo conocerse dicho valor diferencial a través de modelos centrados en los estímulos. El objetivo del estudio ha sido comprobar si seis estímulos referentes a comportamientos sexuales poseen diferentes valores escalares (pesos) en un continuo de valoración actitudinal. Participaron 500 personas seleccionadas mediante muestreo por cuotas. Se aplicó individualmente un cuestionario formado por 15 pares de comportamientos sexuales. Las personas tenían que seleccionar de cada par el comportamiento que valoraran más positivamente. Los resultados muestran que el orden de los comportamientos sexuales en el continuo valorativo es similar en las tres submuestras (con pareja estable, con pareja ocasional y sin pareja). Los comportamientos convencionales tienen menos peso en el constructo que los no convencionales.

Sexual attitudes have been inferred from test and scale scores, where all items have the same value. But these items could contribute differentially in the construct measure, being able to capture these differences between items through stimulus-centered scaling. The aim of the study was to verify if six stimuli referring to sexual behaviors have different scale values (weights) in a continuum of attitudinal valuation. Five hundred people selected by quota sampling participated. A questionnaire consisting of 15 pairs of sexual behaviors was applied individually. People had to select from each pair the behavior they valued more positively. The results show that the sexual behaviors’ order in the valuation continuum is similar in the three subsamples (with steady partner, with casual partner, and without partner). Conventional behaviors have less weight in the construct than unconventional behaviors. |
