The SexFlex Scale: A Measure of Sexual Script Flexibility When Approaching Sexual Problems in a Relationship.

The objective of this paper was to develop a measure of sexual script flexibility when approaching a sexual problem in a relationship. A series of online studies were conducted with individuals in relationships. As one subscale on the two-factor model had poor convergent and discriminant validity, a final single factor scale with 6-items was retained. The single factor scale demonstrated good model fit, high internal reliability, adequate convergent and discriminant validity, and moderate test re-test reliability. These results support the SexFlex scale as a reliable and psychometrically sound assessment of an individual.s flexibility in approaching a sexual problem. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
