Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of sexual myths levels on individuals’ romantic relationship satisfaction. Also, variables related with sexual myth beliefs were included to analysis. In this direction, Sexual Myths Inventory and Relation Assessment Scale scores of 348 participants between the age of 18 and 63 (mean= 28,93±7,82 years) and in a romantic relationship were analyzed. Data was collected online. According to one way analysis of variance, while only male participants showed statistically significant difference between relationship satisfaction mean scores of levels of sexual myth beliefs, no statistically significant difference found for women.
