Abstract

Researchers posit that sexual addiction often develops in young adulthood (Goodman, Citation2005), the time when many individuals are in college. The PATHOS screening questionnaire (Carnes et al., Citation2012) may be a helpful resource for counselors working with collegiate populations to identify those in need of further assessment for sexual addiction. We collected data from 379 undergraduate students and found that 21.2% of males and 6.7% of females endorsed 3 or more items on the PATHOS, suggesting a need for additional assessment. We discuss implications and limitations of these findings and highlight the need for additional research on college populations.
