| (posted 7-12-06) A study is being conducted on the relationship between sexual addictions and the romantic attachment styles of heterosexual men. Attachment styles have to do with how comfortable men are with being close and open in their
romantic relationships. Participants will complete a demographic
questionnaire, the Sexual Addictions Screening Test (SAST) and the
Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised Scale (ECR-R). There are 71
questions in all, which will take about 15 minutes or less to complete. The study is designed to help therapists better understand and help men who struggle with sexual addictions to relate to their girlfriends or wives in healthy ways. Please click here if you wish to participate. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=690791985040 Thank you. |
