Abstract
Sixteen analogue scales were designed to measure drug- and illness-related changes in three dimensions of sexual function: interest, arousal, and performance. An orthogonal principal component factor analysis confirmed the three clinical factors. Retest reliability ranged between .80 and .94. Normals (N = 30) reported significantly better functioning than did psychiatric outpatients (N = 30).
