Relaciones afectivas y satisfaccion sexual en la pareja

Affective relationships and sexual satisfaction in couples

Pages 343-356 | Published online: 23 Jan 2014
 

Resumen

Con objeto de analizar la asociación entre las relaciones afectivas y la satisfacción sexual, setenta y una parejas completaron tres diferentes formatos adaptados de la Escala de Amor de Rubin (1970, 73), así como el Inventario de Interacción Sexual de LoPiccolo y Steger (1974).

Los resultados obtenidos indican que, mientras que en las parejas que no tienen hijos, los sentimientos de intimidad de la mujer (confianza, preocupación percibida en el otro), y la dependencia afectiva que el hombre percibe en su pareja, son las dimensiones que mayor asociación mantienen con la satisfacción sexual, en las parejas que tienen hijos, es la forma en que el hombre percibe y vivencia las relaciones afectivas lo que mantiene una relación más importante con la satisfacción sexual.

Abstract

With the purpose of analysing the association between affective relationships and sexual satisfaction, seventy one couples completed three different forms adapted from Rubin's Love Scale (1970, 1973), as well as the LoPiccolo and Steger's Sexual Interaction Inventory (1974).

The findings suggest that, for couples without children, women's feelings of intimacy (trust, care which she perceives in man) and the affective dependency perceived by men in their mates, are the dimensions which show the strongest association with sexual satisfaction. Among couples with children the most important aspect which deals with sexual satisfaction is the way men perceive and experience affective relationships.
