理论工作已经提出了厌恶对性唤起的抑制作用，但这种作用还有待实验检验。为了检验厌恶对性唤起的影响，研究人员从美国西南部的两所大学中招募了306名成年人，并将他们随机分为两组。实验条件下的参与者观看了厌恶启动图像，随后观看了性暴露图像。在控制条件下的参与者看到中性启动和性明确的图像。在这两种情况下，参与者被要求提供性唤起的评级，并计时他们观看性图像的时间长度。参与者还完成了三个领域的厌恶量表和人口统计调查问卷。两个分层线性模型-每个因变量一个-进行图像观察嵌套在个人。与中性条件相比，厌恶条件下的性唤起更低，女性的性唤起也低于男性。随着厌恶和性刺激的额外配对，厌恶对女性性唤起的影响变得更大，而对男性的影响较小。数据支持厌恶对性唤起的抑制作用。
Theoretical work has proposed an inhibitory effect of disgust on sexual arousal, but this effect has yet to be examined experimentally. In order to experimentally examine the effect of disgust on sexual arousal, a sample of 306 adults recruited from two southwestern universities was randomly assigned to one of two conditions. Participants in the experimental condition viewed disgust priming images and subsequently viewed sexually explicit images. Participants in the control condition viewed neutral primes and sexually explicit images. In both conditions, participants were asked to provide ratings of sexual arousal, and were timed for the length of time they viewed the sexual images. Participants also completed the Three Domain Disgust Scale and a demographic questionnaire. Two hierarchical linear models—one per each dependent variable—were conducted with image observations nested within individuals. Sexual arousal was lower in the disgust condition compared to the neutral condition, and lower for women compared to men. With additional pairings of disgust and sexual stimuli, the effect of disgust on sexual arousal became larger for women and smaller for men. Data support the inhibitory effect of disgust on sexual arousal.
