Take Porn Addiction Survey
For those who are interested, Dr. William M. Struthers, associate professor of psychology at Wheaton College is conducting an online survey for those who have struggled with habitual porn use.
- The survey takes about 30 minutes.
- It includes questions about demographic information (age, gender, education, etc), a section on personality type, spirituality/religiosity, interpersonal style, and sexual history.
- All data will be kept confidential and anonymous.
- The study has been approved by the Wheaton College Institutional Review Board.
As a researcher, Dr. Struthers wants to provide a clearer scientific understanding of why porn has a hold on so many people. The only way the APA will consider adding porn addiction to the DSM-V is if the scientific community starts putting forward empirical evidence.










Thanks for the tip – I’ll certainly try to send some visitors to this survey.
The case for DSM-V acknowledgement of ‘porn addiction’ is the subject of much debate, but good to see qualified scientific research and interest.
