| dc.description.abstract | Casual sex has become culturally normative. A lot of research has been done in the US, but research in the Dutch population is scarce. The present study consists of two parts. The first part focuses on casual sex among Dutch university students. The second part focuses on selfesteem in relation to casual sex, and attitudes towards casual sex as a possible moderating factor. A sample of 108 Dutch female university students completed an online questionnaire. This questionnaire included the Dutch version of the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Dutch version of the Brief Sexual Attitudes Scale and a set of additional questions about casual sex. Results revealed that 88% of the students engaged in casual sex and thus, having casual sex is very common. Overall, these females were very positive about their casual sex experience. Nevertheless, no relation was found between self-esteem and casual sex. In addition, attitudes towards casual sex turned out not to be a predictor for this relationship. | |
