Response to Rosen et al. ( 2014 ) "Commentary on 'Critical flaws in the FSFI and IIEF'".
This is a response to the commentary by Rosen, Revicki, and Sand ( 2014 ) on our original article titled "Critical Flaws in the Female Sexual Function Index and the International Index of Erectile Function" (Forbes, Baillie, & Schniering, 2014 ). We address his criticisms and clarify our points further using existing research. We conclude that there are a number of evident limitations to these popular measures, and suggest that researchers and clinicians familiarize themselves with the aim and scope of each measure before use.
