Sexual behavior and affective disorders.
One hundred and fifty four consecutively evaluated new and return psychiatric outpatients were examined by the same interviewer using a detailed, precoded questionaire based on the diagnostic criteria for psychiatric research proposed by Feighner, et al. Sexual behavior manifested as prostitution involvement, promiscuity and extramarital sexual experiences was studied for groups of patients with unipolar and bipolar primary affective disorders, secondary affective disorders and non affective disorders. Results and conclusions are reported.
