The social organization of sexuality
Abstract
To the Editor. —The National Health and Social Life Survey on adult sexual behavior in the United States was released recently. 1-3 The report is based on interviews of 3432 men and women aged 18 to 59 years residing in randomly selected households across the country. The goals of the survey were to present a comprehensive and scientific picture of sexual behavior, guide further research, and target health and social services. However, the potential for misinterpretation of this information is great, particularly in planning and allocating resources related to sexually transmitted diseases such as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). One prominent finding of the survey was that approximately 80% of adults reported no or one sexual partner in the year before the interview, and approximately 3% of men and 2% of women reported any homosexual or bisexual activity during the same period. From these data,

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
