Hypersexuality in Kayakers: Roles of Sport, Gender, and Perceived Stress.

Sports participation is associated with heightened sexual behavior, while its determinants are unclear. We examined hypersexuality in 104 kayakers and 77 mixed exercisers, considering the roles of gender, exercise volume, and perceived stress. Participants, 89 men and 92 women (Mage = 26.1 ± 8.1 yea...

      ab: Sports participation is associated with heightened sexual behavior, while its determinants are unclear. We examined hypersexuality in 104 kayakers and 77 mixed exercisers, considering the roles of gender, exercise volume, and perceived stress. Participants, 89 men and 92 women (Mage = 26.1 ± 8.1 years) completed the Hypersexual Behavior Inventory, Perceived Stress Scale, and demographic questions online. Path analyses tested the relationships between perceived stress and exercise volume, considering gender and sports form-related differences. Women reported more stress than men (p <.001, Cohen's d =.70). Men reported higher hypersexuality than women (p <.001, d =.96). Kayakers reported higher training volumes (p <.001, d =.97) and hypersexuality than mixed exercisers (p =.003, d =.46). Perceived stress was positively and moderately associated with hypersexuality, while exercise volume was positively but weakly related to hypersexuality only among men. Exercise volume was unrelated to hypersexuality in kayakers, while a positive, moderate association emerged in mixed exercisers. These results suggest that hypersexuality and its associations with perceived stress and exercise volume could vary based on the sports' form and the gender of the athlete. While the perceived stress may relate to hypersexuality in both men and women, the relationship between exercise volume and hypersexuality may vary more according to gender and the sport's form.
