Operational definitions are given for the terms "erotic" or "sexual" and "erotic arousal level." Measurement of erotic arousal level is discussed as well as "scales of erotic value." A reference system for the analysis of the progression of sexual interaction is expounded, and the analysis of anomalies from the norm of such a progression briefly discussed.
