“…With increasing age, physical health, sexual desire, and sexual capacities decrease that would affect sexual frequency. 6 , 34 However, low or high frequency in one person means they have less or strong interest in sex, and then age factors have different effects in different frequencies. 9 Similarly, gender also plays an important role in the frequency with which people engage in sex.…”

“…A positive association between sexual knowledge and coital frequency has been previously reported in aging. 38 , 39 Yang and Yan 34 showed that sufficient knowledge of sexuality predicted a higher level of sexual activity in older Chinese people. Interestingly, in our research of internal migrant populations, sexual knowledge had a positive effect in 10% and 50% quartile of frequency, but had a negative effect in 90% quartile.…”

BackgroundSexual frequency is associated with the quality of life. China’s internal migrants that are sexually active are more likely to participate in sexual behavior. However, less work has been undertaken to assess the sexual frequency and its predictors in migrants.AimThis study seeks to explore which factors were related to sexual frequency in migrants and how the association varies with different levels of sexual frequency.MethodsA total of 10,834 men and 4,928 women aged 20–49 years from 5 cities in China were enrolled by multi-stage sampling during August 2013–August 2015.OutcomesSexual frequency among migrants was determined by asking: How many times have you had sexual intercourse with a man/woman in the past 30 days?ResultsIn this study, sexual frequency with an average age of 38.28 years was 5.06 (95% CI 5.01–5.11) time per month. Negative binomial showed that male gender, younger age, earlier age of sexual debut, masturbation, more knowledge of sexual and reproductive health, longer time together with a spouse, and higher school education and incomes were predictors of increased sexual frequency in migrants. Communicating with sexual partners frequently had the largest effect on sexual frequency compared with occasional communicating (β = 0.2419, incidence rate ratio = 1.27, 95% CI 1.23–1.31). In the quantile regression, months of cohabitation (β = 0.0999, 95% CI 0.08–0.12), frequent sexual communication (β = 0.4534, 95% CI 0.39–0.52), and masturbation (β = 0.2168, 95% CI 0.14–0.30) were positively related to lower levels of sexual frequency. Interestingly, migrants who had low and high sexual frequency would be affected in opposite directions by the knowledge of sexual and reproductive health.Clinical TranslationClinicians can more understand the relationship between sexual frequency and its factors that can as the symptom basis of sexually-related diseases.ConclusionsThe present findings indicate that specific demographic, socioeconomic, and epidemiological characteristics influenced sexual frequency among migrants. Sexual communication as the largest effect predictor to sexual frequency should be paid more attention to, to improve sexual activity of migrants.Zhang J, Wu J, Li Y, et al.

“…A cross-sectional study shows that 41.26% of women reported engaging in some form of sexual activity in China. [ 21 ] Therefore, 72.9% of patients had no sexual activity, 22.0% considered that there was no effect on their sexual life, 4.2% considered that there was “a little” effect, and 0.9% considered that there were some effects (Supplementary Table 3). There were no differences between the 2 groups (all P > .05) (Supplementary Table 3).…”

“…Otros estudios evidenciaron que, los polacos tienen actitudes moderadas hacia la sexualidad (Cybulski et al, 2018) y el 53% de AM españoles consideraron la importancia de la sexualidad (Hernández et al, 2019). En China, Yang & Yan (2016) afirman que la mitad de la población de AM mantienen una actitud de interés hacia lo sexual. DeLamater (2012), Kleinstäuber (2017) y Beckman et al, (2014) proponen que la actitud hacia lo sexual tiene relación directamente proporcional con el interés sexual, la frecuencia de la actividad (Traeen et al, 2018), el deseo (Trudel et al, 2014), la expresión sexual (Da Torres & Rodríguez, 2019), la satisfacción sexual (Cybulski et al, 2018) y menor percepción del envejecimiento (Da .…”

“…A su vez, tener pareja estable y satisfacción relacional son determinantes de la frecuencia de las conductas sexuales (Gharibi et al, 2019;Jalenques et al, 2020;Perdomo et al, 2013). El estatus civil de casado es decisivo únicamente en mujeres (Yang & Yan, 2016).…”

La particularidad actual de varios países es el envejecimiento poblacional, la cual visibiliza a los adultos mayores (AM) como individuos con propias necesidades y permite cuestionar las condiciones en las que están envejecimiento, en especial, en el ámbito sexual expresado por los factores psicosexuales y las habilidades sociosexuales, mismo que denota vacíos investigativos. El objetivo de la investigación es identificar y sintetizar la información disponible sobre los factores psicosexuales y habilidades sociosexuales en un segmento específico de AM. Se realizó una revisión de la literatura científica en la última década por medio de 4 bases de datos digitales Scopus, Scielo, Dialnet y Web of Science, posterior a la lectura y análisis a texto completo se seleccionaron estudios cuantitativos, cualitativos y revisiones de la literatura asegurando su aporte de interés por medio de los criterios de selección. Como resultados, la revisión arrojó 42 referencias utilizadas para sintetizar la información disponible, posterior al análisis, los datos fueron agrupados en factores psicosexuales, expresados en 6 variables, habilidades sociosexuales, expresados en 3 variables, y la edad, entendida como una variable transversal a todas las mencionadas. Concluyendo, esta revisión de la literatura aporta una síntesis integral de las variables que intervienen en la sexualidad de los AM, que a su vez permitirá comprenderlas y canalizarlas por su impacto directo en el proceso de envejecimiento. Finalmente, facilitará la construcción teórica de la temática que guíen la estructuración de políticas públicas socio sanitarias al momento de desarrollar intervenciones exitosas de salud.
