Abstract
Five measures were used in this study to assess preorgasmic group treatment: Gambill-Richey Assertiveness Scale, Dyadic Adjustment Scale, Sexual Arousal Inventory, Survey of Sexual Activity, and General Information Questionnaire. The total sample (N = 70) was made up of two groups: a control group of 32 women and a treatment group of 38 women who had completed preorgasmic group treatment. Analysis of the data showed that the treatment group women were having orgasms more frequently, had developed significantly more positive feelings about themselves, and established better communication with their partners. In assertiveness, the treatment group was somewhat higher, while no significant differences were found on the Dyadic Adjustment Scale. Of most significance for future research was the finding of increased sexual arousal for treatment group women.
