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 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.

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)."

Abstract
The types of sexual dysfunction that this paper explores are those on the psychological side of the fence. The writer presents this correlation between emotion and sexuality from the view of all the major genres of discourse; thus, the paper ranges from neurobiology to philosophy and back again. Specifically, this work is divided into four main sections that include neurobiology, psychology, social taboos, and philosophy and treatment. Moreover, the paper is an attempt to show that emotions and emotional states play a fundamental role in all functional and dysfunctional sexual relations on all levels.
From the Paper
"Of course it is first important to define exactly what we refer to when we speak of sexual dysfunction and/or perversion, and further that we distinguish the special forms of dysfunction that this paper will concern itself with. The encyclopedia Britannica defines sexual dysfunction as the inability of a person to experience sexual arousal or to achieve sexual satisfaction under appropriate circumstances, as a result of either physical disorder or, more commonly, psychological problems. This definition clearly alludes to what is considered perverse sexual behavior, which is the secondary form of dysfunction. Then sexual perversion is defined as any deviation from ?normal? sexual activity, normal in this case referring to culturally acceptable forms of sexuality (?Sexual Dysfunction?). The other feature of this definition that is important to my agenda is that it makes a clear distinction between what is considered physical and psychological sexual dysfunction. The difference between these two forms of dysfunction should be clear as the physical is an actual inability to perform sexually due to some malfunction or damage to the physical body, then the psychological refers to psychosomatic sexual disorders."

Abstract
This paper looks at how Rape Trauma Syndrome (RTS) brings fear and anxiety to the very area of life that should bring intimacy and comfort. Studies of individuals in society and in the prison population have shown the devastating physical and emotional impact that the invasion of the act of rape can cause. Invasive sexual abuse in childhood or as an adult can cause symptoms ranging from panic attacks to drug abuse. It is important that those who offer sexual counseling be aware of the specific signs of RTS so that they can offer more than standard treatment to free individuals from the deep pain and fear that is held by those experiencing RTS.

Estimates for male children are approximately 1 in 8.
There are a number of effects that have been associated with childhood sexual abuse, including psychological, sexual, and interpersonal difficulties (Briere, 1992). One additional problem that has been associated with early abuse is sexual..."

From the Paper
"One of the most basic human needs is the need for sex. It serves many purposes including the ability to procreate, the feeling of love and warmth, physical gratification and other things that make up the whole of human life. Sexual function is a basic need for society today, and is considered by many to be as important as food and air. Sexual dysfunction can come in many forms, but the inability to perform sexually can cause emotional and psychological problems that in turn have a negative impact on other areas of one?s life. Sexual dysfunction is something that is rarely discussed because of the very importance that society places on the ability to function. Sexual dysfunction can be treated once the person who has it allows treatment and is open about the problem?s existence."

Abstract
This paper reviews several articles discussing female sexuality. It reviews articles on what female sexuality is, what is involved in the sexuality of females, what helps aide in feminine sexuality and what hinders a women's sexuality. The paper looks at some of the problems associated with women's sexuality and whether these are perceived, physical, or medical problems. Finally,it examine how women see their own sexuality.
From the Paper
"Before the advent of the ?sexual revolution? in the 1960s the subject of female sexuality was considered taboo in so called polite society. Discussion of sexuality by females was viewed as an aberration. Women were taught and told that the normal reaction of women towards sexual intercourse was that they generally did not feel any physical or emotional pleasure from it. Sex was a means to an end; by performing their wifely duty to please their mates women were subjugated to the role of baby maker. This severe repression of female sexuality and its total submission to reproductive functions determined the limits of knowledge for untold generations of women (Gomex 1995)."

From the Paper
"Masters' and Johnson's Human Sexual Inadequacy is a cumulative descriptive account of the operation of the clinic for the treatment of human sexual dysfunction at the Washington University School of Medicine since 1959 and its continuation at the Reproductive Biology Research Foundation after 1964. The authors report in detail on the development of their therapeutic format and then discuss the evolution of therapeutic approaches to a dozen of the major types of sexual dysfunction presented by patients. Both parts of the book are written in a direct, clinical--but forcefully clear--manner that is free of therapeutic jargon. This makes the volume as much an invaluable handbook as an introductory text. It is also, however, an important historical document since it is a record of the emergence of the original, and the most influential, model for ..."

Abstract
This paper explains that the inability to perform in a typical manner during sexual intimacies takes its toll on the emotional well being of any relationship and therefore on the quality of life of patients with erectile dysfunction (ED). The author points out that there are now many treatment options, including medications such as sildenafil (Viagra), which have shown promise of improving the lives of many, but not all, people suffering from ED. The paper states that the proposed research will compare, using both quantitative and qualitative data, three non-invasive treatment options: medication, individual therapy and relationship counseling.

From the Paper
"The high rates of probability for partial or complete ED is demonstrative of the need to analyze the problem in a comprehensive manner, especially considering that there are likely many individuals in the population who are excluded for medical reasons from taking oral medications to help resolve or treat the problem of ED as it is also often likely to be associated with medical care for other, more life threatening diseases. ED can be caused by medications used to treat high blood pressure and other high risk medical diagnoses as well as by chronic medical conditions such as diabetes."

"Constructing The Sexual Crucible
Introduction
Constructing the Sexual Crucible by Schnarch (1991) offers material to help people with sexual concerns who fall into the functional, dysfunctional, and blessed few categories. The goal of the book is to create a paradigm shift or a new modality for sexual-marital therapy, rather than to simply increase knowledge in this area (pp. xiv-xv). This reaction paper regards Schnarch's model as a treatment modality pertaining to intimacy and sexuality, constructing the crucible, and inside the crucible related to sexual dysfunction in the marital relationship.
The sexual crucible is a treatment approach based on intimacy and eroticism. It focuses on a non-reciprocity model of intimacy with sexuality as a vehicle for growth. It is.."

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)."

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. "
