      <dc:description>Psychological-psychiatric factors have a different effect on sexual functioning in men and&#xd;
women. This research aimed to examine the association between psychopathological dimensions and&#xd;
dimensions of sexual functioning in Spanish young adults in two studies. Study 1 examined sexual&#xd;
functioning and psychopathological dimensions in 700 women and 516 men. Study 2 conducted&#xd;
an experimental laboratory task to evaluate subjective sexual arousal and genital sensations when&#xd;
watching visual sexual stimuli in a subsample of participants from Study 1 (143 women and 123 men).&#xd;
As a result, the first study showed that depression and anxiety-related symptoms had a negative&#xd;
effect, both in men and women, and having a partner had a positive influence on the dimensions of&#xd;
sexual functioning. The second study showed that anxiety symptoms were positively associated with&#xd;
subjective sexual arousal in both men and women, and anxiety was associated with the assessment of&#xd;
genital sensations in men. The differences between the results of anxiety may be explained because&#xd;
sexual arousal was evaluated in general terms in Study 1, whereas it was evaluated as a state in&#xd;
Study 2. These findings confirm that the presence of psychopathological symptoms contributes to&#xd;
sexual functioning, as well as the necessity of strengthening mental illness prevention programs that&#xd;
include sexual health components.</dc:description>
