Changes in personality scores among couples subsequent to sex therapy

Changes in personality scores and self-perception of 92 couples through sex therapy are reported. The sample included 52 couples with female symptoms (orgasmic dysfunction and vaginismus) and 40 couples with male symptoms (erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation), who all completed therapy. One-year follow-up showed significant changes indicating a general increase of emotional stability and a reduction of neurotic tendencies in both partners.
