Abstract

   Psychosexual dualism is a relatively new theory developed in literature during the past decade. Starting from basic neurophysiological mechanisms, this new approach changed the paradigm related to neurological control of sexual responses, explain the role of cognitive and sexual neuromodulators and offer perspectives for the understanding of cerebral interferences between cognition and sexuality. Taking into account this psychosexual context, it is not surprising that studies have revealed numerous bilateral correlations among sexual and psychosomatic elements (between sexual orientation and sexual neuromodulators, between sexual orientation and hand preference, between sexual orientation and cognitive pattern, etc.).

     The project is aimed to verify if the existing numerous bilateral correlations (among sexual and psychosomatic elements) are interconnected as a whole, due to the fact that sexuality and cognition would correspond to interdependent neurophysiologic cerebral mechanisms. To address this, the project will study if the mentioned psychosomatic and sexual elements aggregate in two distinct bio-psycho-sexual profiles. If so, this project further investigates a direct applicability for this new (bio-psycho-sexual) entity, consisting in determination of a certain (unknown or undeterminable) variable through the other determinable elements which are associated.
