Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Sexual satisfaction is an essential construct in the study of human sexuality. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to validate the Portuguese version of the New Sexual Satisfaction Scale (NSSS), a bidimensional scale that assesses sexual satisfaction among men and women. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 298 participants completed the Portuguese version of the NSSS. RESULTS: The main psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the NSSS were assessed. DISCUSSION: The original bidimensional structure of the NSSS was replicated and good values were also obtained in terms of internal consistency, convergent validity, divergent validity and concurrent validity. CONCLUSIONS: The use of the Portuguese version of the NSSS is justified and reinforced since it has sound psychometric properties.
