Below you will find a brief set of questions about your sexual activities. The questions are divided into different sections that ask about different aspects of your sexual experiences. One section asks about sexual fantasies or daydreams, while another inquires about the kinds of sexual experiences that you have. You are also asked about the nature of your sexual arousal and the quality of your orgasm. There are also a few other questions about different areas of your sexual relationship.
In some questions, you are asked to respond in terms of a frequency scale, that is “how often” do you perform the sexual activities asked about in that section. Some frequency scales go from “0 = not at all” to “8 = four or more times a day”. Other frequency scales range from “0 = never” to “4 = always”. In the case of other questions, you will be asked to respond in terms of a satisfaction scale. This type of scale tells how much you enjoyed, or were satisfied by the sexual activity being asked about. Some satisfaction scales range from “0 = could not be worse” to “8 = could not be better”. Other satisfaction scales go from “0 = not at all satisfied”, to “4 = extremely satisfied”.
In every section of the inventory the scales required for that section are printed just above the questions so it will be easy to follow. Although it is brief, take your time with the inventory. For each item, please circle the scale number that best describes your personal experience. If you have any questions, please ask the person who gave you the inventory for help.
