Sexual DOs Flashcards
age females that pedophiles are attracted to
8-10
androgen insensitivity syndrome
defect in androgen receptor
pt is genetically a male with XY chromosomes
has eternal female sex charactaristics since body unable to respond to androgens
no uterus, no menstruation.
undescended testes
increased testosterone, estrogen and LH
gender identity begins at age
3
criteria for gender hormone therapy
capacity to consent to tx
well document diagnosis of gender dysphoria
well controlled medical/mental comorbidties
rubbing against non consenting people
frotterurism
sexual SE of anti hypertensives
impaired vaginal lubrication due to anti adrenergic effects
gender dysphoria
6 mo of
-incongruence between identified and anatomical gender evidenced by at least 2 of:
-get rid of sex’s charactartistics
-have the opposite genders sex characteristics
be the opposite gender
be treated as the other gender
linked with inc rate of homosexuality
congenital adrenal hyperplasia
recommended stage to start pubertal suppression
tanner 2
criteria for paraphilic DO
- personal distress about their interest
- have a sexual desire or behavior that involves another person’s psychological distress, injury or death
- a desire for sexual behaviors involving unwilling persons or persons unable to give legal consent.
Kleinfelter syndrome
47, XXY
meiotic nondysjunction
tall , long, testicular atrophy, gynecomastia, develolemtnal delay,
may have breast tissue removed
classical conditioning
conditioned stimulus elicits a conditioned response due to proximity to unconditioned stiumulus and unconditioned response
exhibitionaism
exposing genitelia to stangers ,
onset usually before age 18
> 6 mo
cluster analysis
divides large group into smaller groups (clusters) so that each individual cluster is more homogenous by some measure
magnetic resonance spectroscopy
uses signal from hydrogen protons to determine biochemical concentrations of brain metabolites.
PET scan: glucose metabolism
operant schedule types
continuous: reward every time it occurs
fixed interval: reinforcement for a response that occurs at a set time
variable time schedule: reinforcement after varying amounts of time, regardless of behavior being performed.
fixed ratio: reinforcement every set period of responses
chi square test
and others
chi: used to compare samples with non measurable nominal or categorical variables . used for frequency data rather than comparison of means
t test: compares means of two independent and different sample populations
paired t test: compare means of two related/paired sample populations
ANOVA: analysis of variance
compares means of multiple groups to determine if they are equal
hawthorne effect
observer effect
bias in which study participants change behavior based on knowledge that they are being studied.
pygmalion effect: people tend to perform to the expectations placed on them.
observer expectancy effect: bias of observer unconsciously influences the participants inadvertently.
congenital sexual DO with higher rates of homosexuality
congenital adrenal hyperplasia : lack 21 hydroxylase enzyme which assists in making cortisol, aldosterone and androgen hormones from adrenal gland
CAH females: ambiguous genitalia , males have early puberty
and
5 alpha reductase deficiency
- genetic males 46XY, there is inability to convert testosterone to DHT. patient will have ambigious genitalia until puberty
how dose of ECT is changed
changing time of exposure to fixed current
“constant current devices”
p value
used to decide statistical significant of results.
p-value of 0.05 implies there is a 5% chance of the experimental result occurring by chance alone if the null hypothesis is true.
null hypothesis: no statistical difference.
how likely it is that your data would have occurred under the null hypothesis of your statistical test.
probability that a particular measure, such as the mean or standard deviation, of an assumed probability distribution will be greater than or equal to observed results.
smaller p value will improve test’s reproducibility.
negative predictive value
liklihood that negative result means they dont have condition.
sensitivity
probability that an individual with the condition will test positive.
80% sensitive means 80/100 will test positive with condition
specificity
probability that individual without condition will test negative.
90% specific means 90 /100 without condition will test negative.
