Compulsive sexual behaviour disorder in the ICD‐11
Open accessAbstract
to support it.However, these factors must be considered when deciding what is immediately implementable, versus that which requires a supportive framework which has yet to be created.All digital health research and claims are informative.Some offer immediate solutions to health care that should be implemented today and others highlight the potential of what may be possible.However, blurring the line between actual and aspirational can be counterproductive.Claiming that aspirational digital health research is ready for immediate use can lead to immediate negative results and broad disappointment.It may even inadvertently contribute to digital health "hype" and foster undue skepticism for the field.However, ignoring digital health technologies with good evidence for real-world implementation is a missed opportunity for improving patient outcomes.Appreciating how aspirational research can guide, inform, and inspire current efforts is also important.Likewise, appreciating the real world success of actualized efforts can help guide aspirational research to be more translatable into health care systems.There is no superior designation, as both ends of the actual and aspirational spectrum have critical roles that cannot be separated.However, the value of both depends upon correct identification of where any given project lies on this spectrum -and further consideration of populations sampled and incentives used are critical to determining this.

In the citing paper
“Studies refer to SA/CSB as excessive, compulsive and uncontrollable sexual behaviour accompanied by sexual preoccupations and fantasies, mental discomfort, escalation and functional impairment, all of which are consistent with the findings of this research (Carnes, 2000;Grubbs et al., 2019;Kraus et al., 2018).”

“To avoid overpathologizing individually unacceptable, socially unacceptable, or high-frequency sexual behavior, a restriction was added to the diagnostic requirements that one’s distress should not be exclusively related to moral judgment or social disapproval.2,26”
From Assessment and treatment of compulsive sexual behavior disorder: a sexual medicine perspective (2024) · cites this paper as [26]
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“The WHO explicitly decided not to classify the new diagnostic category in the grouping of Disorders Due to Addictive Behaviours (i.e., with gambling disorder and gaming disorder), because the evidence was not considered to be strong enough to support this model 223,226 .”
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“These presentations were considered to meet the basic definition of a mental disorder 223,226 and to be associated with substantial suffering for which health services might reasonably be provided.”
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“The WHO has attempted to sidestep many of the controversies in the area while acknowledging the existence of a clinical population of individuals who feel unable to control their own sexual behaviour and as a result experience substantial distress and sometimes quite severely negative functional outcomes.”

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.
