Abstract
"Sexology as a profession" is a survey, which involved scientific sexology societies in seven European countries (Denmark, UK, Finland, France, Italy, Norway, Sweden), with the objective of identifying the different backgrounds and training of sexologists in the countries involved. The new results of the survey conducted in Italy are presented in this work. An Italian version of the same questionnaire used in the other European countries was sent to all the members of the Italian sexology societies. The questionnaire included 89 questions related to the socio-demographic characteristics of sexologists, their basic professional and academic training, their training and specialisation in sexology and their clinical practice of sexology. The results are discussed to describe the characteristics of sexologists in Italy. © 2006 Elsevier SAS.
