- Mindfulness, Sexual Functioning and Subjective Sexual Well-BeingPublication . Martins, Vanessa Ricardo; Pereira, Henrique MarquesThis dissertation is presented under the Masters’ program in Clinical and Health Psychology and is organized in the scientific paper format, which, according to the regulation of the master's degree in Psychology from the University of Beira Interior, allows the inclusion of scientific papers already submitted for publication, given the specific instructions of scientific publication (in this case also in English). Thus, this document describes the research conducted in the academic year of 2014/2015 in the Dissertation Course, to develop methodological procedures that allowed us to understand the relationship between Mindfulness, sexual functioning and subjective sexual well-being. More specifically, the objectives were: (1) to assess levels of mindfulness, sexual functioning and subjective sexual well-being in a Portuguese-speaking adult sample; (2) to compare differences on the levels of mindfulness, sexual performance and subjective sexual well-being between genders (male and female) and among different age groups and (3) to determination of a predictive relationship between mindfulness, sexual functioning and Subjective sexual well-being. It should also be noted that there is a submission to the Journal of Mindfulness, as well as a submission proof Annex in this dissertation. In the final part, a theoretical Annex is included, which was prepared while data were being collected. This is intended to be a solid theoretical basis for a better understanding of the constructs present in the study - Mindfulness, sexual functioning and subjective sexual well-being - addressing some crucial questions about these.
