N2 - Compulsive sexual behavior (CSB) is associated with poor affect regulation and difficulties in interpersonal relationships. People experiencing CSB may engage in ineffective coping and have poor social support. The current study tested relationships between several coping orientations and sources of perceived social support (from significant others, friends, and family) among men seeking treatment for CSB and other sexual health and relationship concerns. Results indicated that religion and self-blame coping orientations predicted greater CSB concerns. Social support from friends and coping with humor were associated with lower CSB. These findings identify potential areas of intervention to target CSB-related concerns.
