lüll Psychological factors involved in impotence A review of the literature Turnbull JM; Weinberg PCJ Androl 1983[Jan]; 4 (1): 59-66Recent developments in the treatment of impotence and studies on the results of psychological methods for its treatment seem to indicate that the number of individuals who suffer from impotence of purely psychogenic origin is less than was reported in literature of the last decade. It is undoubtedly true, however, that psychological factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of this disorder. This review looks at psychological factors involved in impotence from three perspectives. Beginning with a historical review, those theoretical bases which formed the premise for psychological therapies are described. Second, diagnostic issues are explored in some detail. Finally, the variety of treatment modalities which have been used, with varying degrees of success, is described. It appears that whatever psychological treatment method is used, the patients who have the best prognosis are those in whom the disorder has lasted for less than two years, who have a strong motivation for psychotherapy, persisting sexual desire, and who are without significant psychopathology.|Behavior Therapy[MESH]|Erectile Dysfunction/diagnosis/etiology/*psychology/therapy[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hypnosis[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Psychoanalytic Therapy[MESH]|Psychotherapy, Brief[MESH] |
