Sexual activity and risk taking in young heterosexual men: The relevance of sexual arousability, mood, and sensation seeking

Ejaculatory latency and control in men with premature ejaculation: an analysis across sexual activities using multiple sources of information.
TLDR
Psychophysiological testing indicated greater ejaculatory vulnerability to penile stimulation, although not visual erotic stimulation, in PE men than functional controls and preliminary analysis of laboratory data suggests psychophysiological methodology is as effective in differentiating dysfunctional from functional men as prospective and retrospective methodologies.
