失控的性行为，也被称为强迫性行为或性成瘾，尚未在一般人群的代表性样本中进行研究。达尼丁多学科健康与发展研究的1，015名出生队列成员中，有940名（93%）在32岁时回答了一系列由计算机管理的有关性行为的问题。我们询问了参与者在过去一年中认为失控的性幻想，冲动或行为，并将这些经历定义为失控的性经历（OCSE）。近13%的男性和7%的女性在过去一年中报告了OCSE。报告此类经历的女性比其他女性更有可能报告（采访中的其他地方）有大量的异性伴侣，同时发生性关系，或与互联网上认识的伴侣发生性关系，以及同性吸引或行为的可能性更高。在报告OCSE的男性中，与异性性行为和同性吸引力和行为有关。很少有人认为OCSE干扰了他们的生活（队列中所有男性的3.8%和所有女性的1.7%）。只有0.8%的男性和0.6%的女性报告说，他们的实际性行为干扰了他们的生活。OCSE还分析了与某些人格特征和儿童期性虐待（CSA）的关系。一些证据表明，CSA与冲动（仅女性）和消极情感有关。CSA与男性的OCSE有关。总之，这项以人群为基础的研究提供了第一个经验估计的发生OCSE及其关系的一系列性行为的代表性样本。
Out of control sexual behavior, also known as compulsive sexual behavior or sexual addiction, has not been studied in a representative sample of the general population. At age 32 years, 940 (93%) of 1,015 members of the birth cohort of the Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study responded to a series of questions about sexual behavior, administered by computer. We enquired about sexual fantasies, urges or behavior that participants regarded as out of control during the previous year, and defined such experiences as out of control sexual experiences (OCSE). Nearly 13% of men and 7% of women reported OCSE in the past year. Women who reported such experiences were more likely than other women to have reported (elsewhere in the interview) having had high numbers of opposite sex partners, concurrent sexual relationships, or sex with a partner met on the internet, as well as a higher likelihood of same-sex attraction or behavior. Among men reporting OCSE, there was an association with having paid for heterosexual sex and with same-sex attraction and behavior. Few believed that OCSE had interfered with their lives (3.8% of all men and 1.7% of all women in the cohort). Only 0.8% of men and 0.6% of women reported that their actual sexual behavior had interfered with their lives. OCSE were also analyzed in relation to certain personality traits and to childhood sexual abuse (CSA). Some evidence of a link with impulsivity (women only) and negative affectivity was found. CSA was associated with OCSE among men. In conclusion, this population-based study has provided the first empirical estimations of the occurrence of OCSE and its relationship to a range of sexual behaviors in a representative sample.
