Abstract
in Compulsive Sexual Behavior (CBD) and persons with CSBD. While impulsivity and psychiatric
comorbidity play a role in persons with CSBD regardless of gender, some gender differences can be
identified. CSBD is more prevalent in men, with a higher rate of reported sexual behaviors and higher scores on questionnaires measuring CSBD related symptoms. Neuroticism and stress vulnerability
seem to play a more important role in the symptomatology of CSBD in women. While it seems plausible that childhood adversities play a role in the development of CSB, the manner with respect to how these adversities affect men and women differently is still to be explored. More clinical studies including the female CSBD population are required to infer clinical implications.
