Emotional Intimacy and Distress About Sexual Difficulties in Partnered Older European Men and Women: A Network Analysis. Lonza, A., Štulhofer, A., & Graham, C. Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy, 46(5):474-490, Routledge, 7, 2020. abstract bibtex Although research in older individuals’ sexual health is steadily increasing, the nature of, and predictors related to, their distress about changes in sexual function have not been well-studied. Using data from sexually active and partnered 1,047 Norwegian and Danish women and men aged 60-75 years, this study employed network analysis to explore the structure of older individuals’ sexual distress and the role of emotional intimacy. Men’s network of sexual distress facets was more densely interconnected than women’s network. Higher emotional intimacy was associated with lower sexual distress levels across gender. The findings have implications for sexual health interventions targeting older people.
