Why is it important?

Results may help clinicians guide women to work within their attachment style to maximize sexual pleasure and minimize psychological discomfort associated with sexual activity and orgasm.

Perspectives

This study builds upon existing research in both attachment and the phenomenon of faking orgasm, by furthering our understanding of the intersection between sexual behavior and interpersonal closeness.
