Correlations between subjective and genital arousal for women by type of correlations (selected studies)
Within-subject | Between-subject | Mixed | |
---|---|---|---|
Average effect size (r) | .43 | .29 | .26 |
95% confidence intervals | .24 to .63 | .21 to .37 | .02 to .50 |
Samples (K) | 10 | 50 | 7 |
Sample size (n) | 133 | 1,144 | 88 |
Number of studies | 9 | 42 | 6 |
Homogeneity (Q) | 8.1 | 72.9 | 2.5 |
p = .52 | p < .05 | p = .87 |
Note: Selected studies refer to basic samples, without experimental manipulations, and with standard external sexual stimuli. A significant Q value means that effect sizes are not homogeneous, suggesting the presence of one or more moderator variables
