Sažetak
The aim of this cross-cultural study was to examine predictors of sexual satisfaction.
For the present analysis, we used a large-scale sample database that included 8821 individuals
from 4 countries. All participants completed the same questionnaires, which were designed to capture
numerous important variables that have been shown to correlate with sexual satisfaction. According to
our results, predictors of sexual satisfaction were classified into four general categories (demographic
factors, psychological factors, sociocultural factors, and pathophysiological factors). Our international
study found statistically significantly higher satisfaction among homosexual participants, participants
aged 18 to 23 years, those with a higher level of education, in a relationship, with a current sexual
partner, in a current partnered (unmarried) relationship, and without a diagnosed sexual or mental
disorder. At the same time, we found that the correlation between sexual satisfaction and the different
predictors varieed considerably across countries, which calls for further research.
