Note: The abovementioned PROMIS measures and their scoring manuals (except for PROMIS SexFS v2.0 measures) are available at http://www.healthmeasures.net/search-view-measures. See Weinfurt et al. [29] for the development of PROMIS SexFS v2.0. Erectile Function domain (SexFS v2.0) has four items but only three were used in the current study because the omitted item only appeared under the phone mode.

Items labeled with a ‘**’ symbol are reverse-worded items whose higher categories indicate lower levels on the measured domain.
