Sexual Excitation Index Test - Symptoms and Signs
This brief self-report measure assesses patterns of sexual arousal responsivity in intimate contexts. The Sexual Excitation Index is typically used to support clinical formulation and discussion of factors that may influence sexual functioning and relationship dynamics.
The questionnaire consists of 25 items and generally takes about 5 minutes to complete. Items query perceived sensitivity and reactivity to sexual and interpersonal cues; results are interpreted in conjunction with clinical interview data and relevant contextual factors. The Sexual Excitation Index may be administered in individual or couples settings to help identify potential areas of concern as well as relative strengths, while avoiding overreliance on stereotypes or expectations.
