چکیده
In this study, the interrelationships between the variables of sexual guilt, sexual experience, sexual misinformation and sexual satisfaction were examined. One hundred and twenty-five college students, selected through a stratified cluster sampling technique, completed a questionnaire consisting of: a) Mosher Forced Choice Inventory Sexual Guilt subscale; b) a list of 40 common sexual myths and fallacies; c) Brady Levitt Sexuai Experience Scale; and d) three scales measuring sexual satisfaction. Preliminary analyses revealing no significant differences between males and females allowed for combining of all data for main analyses. Results indicate that sexual guilt was positively related to sexual misinformation Oa .001) and two measures of sexual satisfaction Oa .05 and g .001). Sexual experience was negatively related to sexual misinformation (P .05) and positively correlated to two indices of sexual satisfaction (a .05 and 2. .001) .
