| الوصف: | The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) is a brief, multidimensional scale for assessing sexual function in women. The scale has received initial psychometric evaluation, including studies of reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity (Meston, 2003; Rosen et al., 2000). The present study was designed to crossvalidate the FSFI in several samples of women with mixed sexual dysfunctions (N = 568) and to develop diagnostic cut-off scores for potential classification of women’s sexual dysfunction. Some of these samples were drawn from our previous validation studies (N = 414), and some were added for purposes of the present study (N = 154). The combined data set consisted of multiple samples of women with sexual dysfunction diagnoses (N = 307), including female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD), hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), female sexual orgasm disorder (FSOD), dyspareunia/vaginismus (pain), and multiple sexual dysfunctions, in Supported by an unrestricted grant from Bayer Phamaceuticals. In this study, women without sexual dysfunction were used as the reference group since higher FSFI scores indicate better sexual function. As a result, “sensitivity ” refers to the ability of the test to correctly classify positive sexual function. Sensitivity should be interpreted as the ability of the FSFI to correctly classify women without sexual dysfunction, and specificity to the ability to correctly classify women with sexual dysfunction. |
