越来越多的文献表明，性冲动和参与性行为之间存在关联，这些性行为在感染艾滋病毒/性病方面具有高风险。在大多数这些研究中，性强迫性都是用性强迫性量表来测量的（SCS; Kalichman & Rompa, 1995）。到目前为止，仅在艾滋病毒感染“高风险”群体成员或艾滋病毒阳性个体中使用此量表评估性强迫症。在本研究中，我们在876名异性恋大学生样本中发现了SCS的信度和结构效度的支持，这一群体尚未在性成瘾和强迫性文献中被研究过。建构效度证实了性强迫与性行为频率和性伴侣数量之间存在显著的关系。该量表还与性别和年龄有关。性强迫得分与危险性行为的频率有关。当我们控制人口变量时，性强迫与单独、伴侣、公共和危险的性行为之间的关系仍然很重要。虽然我们在样本中发现了SCS结构效度的支持，但尚不清楚该量表是明确衡量性强迫还是利用其他结构，如性欲和性探索。
A growing body of literature suggests that an association exists between sexual compulsivity and participation in sexual behaviors that are high risk in terms of HIV/STD infection. In most of these studies, sexual compulsivity has been measured using the Sexual Compulsivity Scale (SCS; Kalichman & Rompa, 1995). As yet, sexual compulsivity has only been assessed with this scale among individuals who are members of "high risk" groups for HIV infection or who are HIV-positive. In this study, we found support for reliability and construct validity of the SCS in a sample of 876 heterosexual college students, a group not yet examined in the sexual addiction and compulsivity literature. Construct validity was substantiated by the presence of significant relationships of sexual compulsivity with frequencies of sexual behaviors and numbers of sexual partners. The scale was also related to gender and age. Sexual compulsivity scores were associated with frequency of risky sexual behaviors. The relationships between sexual compulsivity and solo, partner, public, and risky sexual behaviors remained significant when we controlled for demographic variables. Although we found support for construct validity of the SCS in our sample, it is not clear whether the scale distinctly measures sexual compulsivity or taps into other constructs, such as sexual desire and sexual exploration.
