Abstract
Until recently, the area of psychological sexual dysfunction in the older adult has been relatively ignored. A functional analysis of sexual dysfunctions among older adults continues to be lacking. Numerous general and age-specific psychosocial factors are implicated in development and maintenance of sexual dysfunction among older adults. These factors are discussed in the context of our model of sexual dysfunction. Assessment strategies and questions are provided following from the Sexual Dysfunction Interview, a semi-structured interview.
