Sažetak
Aim of this research was to establish effects and influence of personality traits on sexual functioning of schizophrenic
and depressive patients, compared to healthy individuals. 300 participants were included in this research. For patients
suffering from schizophrenia it was established that the more they are open to experience and the less they are neurotic
their sexual drive is stronger. For patients suffering from depression it was established that the more they are open to experience
and conscientious and the less they are agreeable their sexual drive is stronger. Furthermore, higher openness is
a significant predictor for easier sexual arousal and the more those patients are conscientious and the less they are agreeable
easier is for them to achieve orgasms. Personality traits proved to be significant predictors of sexual functioning in
schizophrenic and depressive patients, but not in healthy individuals.
