“…In other instruments such as the Clark Sexual History Questionnaire[69] and the Sex Inventory used for screening of sex offenders[104] sexual activities were designed to serve as direct measures of sexual behavior and thereby indirect measures to functioning and satisfaction. In the early 1970's questionnaires began to incorporate a broader definition of sexualfunction and satisfaction.…”

“…Los instrumentos que se han construido pocos años más tarde, como el Inventory of Attitude to Sex o el Sex Inventory (Eysenck, 1970;Thorne, 1966), se han focalizado en colectivos más específicos como los agresores sexuales, y han medido la actitud hacia determinados comportamientos sexuales, considerando algunos tipos de conductas sexuales poco adaptativas e inmorales, causantes incluso de conflicto o neurosis (Eysenck, 1970;Thorne, 1966). Con el SAS (Hendrick et al, 1985) aparece un instrumento explícitamente multidimensional de actitudes hacia la sexualidad.…”

ResumenLas aproximaciones del estudio de las actitudes hacia la sexualidad se caracterizan por la abundancia de publicaciones basadas en distintos marcos conceptuales e instrumentos de medición. En este trabajo se realizó una revisión bibliográfica sistemática para identificar los instrumentos disponibles, con la finalidad de analizar sus objetivos, contenidos y principales características. Se utilizaron las bases de datos Proquest Psychology Journal y Scopus. En 372 documentos recuperados se identificaron 55 instrumentos diferentes que cumplían los criterios de inclusión establecidos, que permiten clasificarlos en tres tipos. Aunque los instrumentos hacen referencia a las actitudes hacia la sexualidad, no siempre comprenden contenidos similares. Esto es coherente con las definiciones amplias y poco delimitadas sobre la sexualidad y con las escasas definiciones del constructo actitudes hacia la sexualidad. Palabras clave: actitudes, sexualidad, revisión sistemática AbstractThe approaches to the study of attitudes toward sexuality are characterized by the abundance of publications based on different conceptual frameworks and by a plethora of measurement instruments. The aim of the study was to conduct a systematic literature review to identify and to present an overview of information (measurement objective, the content and the main properties) on instruments measuring the attitudes toward sexuality. A systematic literature search was undertaken in Proquest Psychology Journal and Scopus databases. Fifty five different instruments that met the inclusion criteria were identified in three hundred seventy-two retrieved documents. The instruments were classified in three types. Although the instruments refer to attitudes toward sexuality, not always refer to the same content. This is in line with the broad and slightly delimited definitions of sexuality and with the few explicit definitions of the construct attitudes toward sexuality.

IntroducciónSi hay una nota que caracteriza el campo de las actitudes hacia la sexualidad (actitudes sexuales), es su prolífica, diversa y dispersa producción tanto a nivel conceptual como en su medida. Sin embargo, esta abundancia de publicaciones no se corresponde con las exiguas definiciones explícitas del concepto de actitudes hacia la sexualidad que se pueden encontrar. Entre las escasas que aparecen en la literatura especializada, se encuentra la de López (2009), que la define como "una predisposición a opinar, sentir y actuar ante objetos sexuales (pornografía, por ejemplo), situaciones (el desnudo, por ejemplo), personas diferentes (homosexuales, por ejemplo), normas o costumbres sociales (el matrimonio, por ejemplo) y conductas sexuales (sexo oral, por ejemplo)" (p. 86).A pesa...

“…The Sex Inventory ( 2 ) consists of 40 subtle-indirect and 160 obvious-direct items relating to all aspects of sexuality. Pilot studies performed with large samples of comparable Ss using earlier forms of the inventory indicated that the items were largely intelligible to Ss with 8 years of education, and that most 8s were responding frankly and with internal consistency of answers.…”

The results from this study tend to confirm Thorne's contention regarding the fixity and fluidity of sexual attitudes, drives, interests and patterns. A particular scale score should be assessed as tapping, on the one hand, relatively fixed, stable attitudes and, on the other, situational, temporary sexual reactions and/or patterns in the stage of development and stabilization. SUMMARYThis paper reports on the test-retest reliabilities of the ten scale scores and the 200 items of The Sex Inventory. The sample consisted of male and female college students tested three months apart. The results suggest acceptable levels of reliability for all scale scores. The coefficients for most items point to the presence of relatively stable attitudes, interests and drives. Scale scores are interpreted as reflecting current psychological states in which both fixed, stable attitudes as well as temporary interests, drives and reactions and possibly developing sexual patterns are tapped.
