Keyword: Sexual BehaviorAbstract: We examined relationships between paraphilic interests and compulsive sexual behavior, including problematic pornography use in a U.S. community sample of adults (N = 2,055). Pedophilic and voyeuristic interests were significant, positive predictors of both outcomes, highlighting the clinical relevance of understanding non-consensual paraphilic interests in association with compulsive sexual behaviors.
