From the Paper
"Muscles of the vagina, uterus, and even the rectum contract due to a sympathetic-mediated response. The clitoris is successfully stimulated through direct stimulation, and floor orgasms may result from cervical stimulation or that of the anterior vaginal wall. The fourth phase is resolution, where blood vessels, muscles, and other erotogenic organs return to their original, nonaroused states. There is a sense of general relaxation, well-being, and muscle relaxation. In males, it is believed that they are refractory to an orgasmic response for some period. In contrast, women can have multiple orgasms without going through a refractory period."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"While Female Sexual Dysfunction is not a rare problem, it is difficult to treat due to the fact that patients often feel uncomfortable talking with their physicians about it. Often, too, there is more than one cause and the different causes may require different treatments. Psychotherapy is not the only treatment available today. While it has been the policy of the church, in the past, to lead women to believe what should be normal sexual desire is instead perverse or bad, that attitude is slowly changing and the church is helping women build a better self-image."

Abstract
This paper addresses the issue of whether sexual dysfunction in the elderly is a result of disease and physical conditions or an aspect of the aging process. The paper holds that changes in sexual desire and activity may be the result of a wide range of biological, social, emotional, cultural and environmental factors. The paper suggests that, while sexual dysfunction is related to a combination of the aging process and disease conditions, it may also largely be the result of misguided beliefs about aging and sexuality. The paper concludes that a great proportion of sexual problems are associated with the conditions of older people's lives and with social attitudes about aging and sexuality. It holds that the majority of issues related to sexual dysfunction can be addressed through heath teaching.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"One reason for sexual dysfunction is relatively easily addressed and has important implications for nursing. Lack of information about sexual dysfunction and embarrassment on the part of men to discuss the issue needs to be addressed through sensitive health teaching. Erectile dysfunction can produce a significant psychological and social impact on the patient and his partner. In addition, it is associated with depression, anxiety, and loss of self-esteem in both partners. Even though society is open about the problem of erectile dysfunction, men generally are not inclined to seek help. However, since erectile dysfunction could be the first manifestation of cardiovascular disease as well as diabetes, it is extremely important that he care provider inquire about the problem during patient visits (Kolodny, 2003)."

From the Paper
"There are various research methods that have been applied in the investigation of this phenomenon.

As discussed in the above section both experiential and correlative methods have advantage and disadvantages. While the more objective data that is obtained through the correlation of different variables helps in understanding the problem of sexual dysfunction, experiential methods such as interviews and personal discussion also provide important data. Therefore it follows the best methodology is one that would involve both experiential and correlation methods."

Abstract
This paper examines whether sexual dysfunction in the elderly is a result of disease and physical conditions or is it an aspect of the aging process. The response to that question is best expressed by Howard and O'Neill (2006) who hold that changes in sexual desire and activity may be the result of a wide range of biological, social, emotional, cultural and environmental factors. The paper further notes that whereas mere changes in sexual activity do not necessarily indicate a serious problem, sexual dysfunction is related to a combination of the aging process and disease conditions.
From the Paper
"Sexual desire and activity are common among aging men and women worldwide and continue into old age. Many older people believe that sexual activity is essential for self-esteem and for maintaining a relationship (McKay, 2004). The research question is: Is sexual dysfunction the elderly a result of disease and physical conditions or is it an aspect of the aging process? The response to that question is best expressed by Howard and O'Neill (2006) who hold that changes in sexual desire and activity may be the result of a wide range of biological, social, emotional, cultural and..."

Abstract
According to a study in the Journal of American Medical Association, four out of ten women and three out of ten men experience sexual problems. This paper examines reasons for sexual dysfunction, including physical and emotional triggers. It then examines the impact on a relationship and what can be done to treat the various degrees of dysfunction.
From the Paper
"Behavioral therapy and antidepressant drugs are found to be valuable in countering premature ejaculation. But it is more important to concentrate on the emotional and personal intimacy of the affected couple to cure the problem. It is useful to obtain a thorough sexual history from the patient and from the partner. A careful plan must be outlined that requires dedication, patience and commitment from both partners. The primary task is to get rid of the "performance anxiety" in the man."

Abstract
This paper looks at examples of symptoms of dysfunction within a company such as indirect communication, alliances, a loss of corporate memory and a lack of friendship among professional colleagues. It examines different models of organization such as the structural model, the deterministic model and the computational model to determine which are useful in solving the problem of dysfunction within a company.
From the Paper
"Another model of organization is the competency model. A competency model identifies skills, knowledge and the characteristics necessary to perform a job. These models have been in use for more than three decades. In the last five years, interest in them and their potential to help staffing and development efforts has increased dramatically. This interest will continue to grow over the next few years due to three key, related trends: intensified competition, aggressive cost management and downsizing, and the proliferation of a feedback system."

Abstract
This paper examines erectile dysfunction in the older adult. It describes possible causes, treatment, and prevention. The paper presents the various medicines available for treatment of this problem and discusses their effectiveness. The paper provides great detail about the body and the possible causes of the dysfunction. This paper takes the reader through treatment options, such as medicines, exercise, and physical therapy.
From the Paper
"Erectile dysfunction is commonly labeled as an age related condition in males. The disorder affects a man's ability to achieve or maintain an erection at least 25% of his attempts. Until recently men and their physicians did not discuss problems such as Erectile Dysfunction as openly as they do today. Men often experience embarrassment and a loss of confidence when struggling with ED. This emotional stress can lead to prolonged effects of the disorder leaving them in a cycle. Many diseases have now been linked to ED including heart disease, diabetes, and prostate cancer. Research is being done to dissect the physiological causes of ED including Nitric Oxide deficiency and poor circulation. New medications such as Sildenafil (Viagra), Vardenafil (Levitra), and Tadalafil (Cialis) have surfaced making treatment more accessible as well as more effective. Research and surveys are being done on chemical treatments, increased education, and the effects of new medications. Other interventions are used such as surgery and vacuum devices but the recent medications have had the most success (Well-Connected, 2002)."

Abstract

Outline:
Methodology
Data Collection
Analysis
From the Paper
"Erectile dysfunction not only affects the physical aspect of relationships, but also impacts the emotional side of relationships. Erectile dysfunction affects an estimated 10 to 20 million men in America. This number may be under-reported because of the possibility that some men may not tell their physician or seek treatment for the problem out of embarrassment or other reasons (Andolsek, 1997).
Erectile dysfunction affects sexual performance as well as self-esteem for the men who have it. "
