Samenvatting
Contemporary models of sexual behaviour propose that sexual responses involve an interaction between sexual excitatory and sexual inhibitory processes (e.g., Bancroft & Janssen, 2000). From such a perspective, the generation of sexual responses may be compromised when sexual inhibition outbalances sexual excitation. Accordingly, relatively strong inhibitory tendencies may interfere with having pleasurable sex and may give rise to sexual problems, which in turn may set the stage for the generation of a wide range of subsequent difficulties (e.g., depression, anxiety) and negative self-evaluative processes.
