This article has been influential for sexologists since its publication.
The main finding of the article is that sexual problems can be solved on different levels, from simple permission giving, through limited information and specific suggestion, to intensive therapy, requiring increasing degrees of knowledge, training and skill on the part of the clinician. The first three levels (permission giving, limited information and specific suggestions) constitute brief therapy.
Many problems can be solved though brief therapy: “…. It is now unethical to involve clients in an expensive, long term treatment program without first trying to resolve their problems from within a brief therapy approach.” (p.14).
The PLISSIT-model can be a useful tool in designing services for sexual problems, but also for other problems, and requires focus on competence in brief therapy (sexological counselling) as a supplement to intensive therapy. Intensive therapy can include different psychotherapeutic methods, but also medical treatment using medicines or surgery, or specialized physiotherapeutic methods

Sexologcal organizations.
Vis sammendrag
WAS was founded in 1978 as an umbrella organization, based upon five regional federations (Africa, Asia- Oceania, Europe, Latin America and North America). Each of these five federations is based on membership by national organizations. Membership is also possible for Sexological institutes, NGOs and individuals. WAS is now offering membership to national and other regional organizations. It would therefore be of interest to see how organizations on different levels can supplement each other and work together.
- The research question behind this presentation is whether there are different goals of work for organizations on different levels, and how they can support each other. Missions and goals of WAS, EFS and their national members are described and analysed by their statutes and bylaws.
- The results show that organizations on all levels are involved with sexual health and rights, sexuality education, professional training, and standards of ethics. In addition, there seems to be a division of work between the different levels of organizations:
WAS: Network of regional federations; sexual health promotion within international organizations such as WHO and UN; organizing congresses for presenting new research and activist work (within non-governmental organizations - NGOs) and influencing national governments.
EFS: Network of national organizations; harmonization of educational programs; organizing regional congresses for presenting new research and new treatment methods; development of collaborative projects between different countries.
National organizations: Recruitment of members; education; supervision; professional support and development; establishing ethical codes and deontological regulations; organizing national conferences and meetings; influencing politicians and health & education planners.
Conclusion: Sexological organizations at national, regional and global level should find ways to cooperate based on division of work as illustrated by these results.

Symposium SY-28: Nordic SAR/SSA Sexual Attitudes Reassessment and Restructuring (SAR)/ Sexual Self Acknowledgement (SSA).
Vis sammendrag
Introduction and rationale: In this symposium development
and practice of Nordic SAR/SSA (Sexual Self
Acknowledgement) in professional sexological education
will be presented by representatives from
Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden and Norway.
Project/Population and settings: In 1995 the first
Nordic Curriculum was presented in Iceland, and the
first program in basic sexology and sexological counselling
was established in Finland in 1996. In 1999 a
Nordic framework for sexological education and authorization
was presented in Norway, and in 2002 the first
Specialists in Sexological Counselling and Clinical sexology
were approved by The Nordic Association for
Clinical Sexology (NACS). In this work, the original
SAR, developed by Ted Mc Ilvenna in San Francisco in
the 1970´s was introduced. The Nordic sexologists
agreed that there was need for a more up to date version
of SAR. It came to be named Nordic SAR/SSA.
Outcome: It was up to each educational program to
develop their versions of the SSA, and has been
developed by different influences in the different
Nordic countries. In this symposium, Rikke Pristed will
present the Danish SAR/SSA, Tiina Vilponen will present
the Finnish SAR/SSA, Sigga Dögg will present the
Icelandic SAR/SSA, Esben Esther Pirelli Benestad will
present the Norwegian SAR/SSA, and Maria Carola
Bure will present the Swedish SAR/SSA.
Discussion and recommendation: The main theme
in all the Nordic versions of SAR/SSA is to be confronted
with expressions of sexuality that may provoke
negative attitudes, ignorance, counter-transference, and
anxiety/fear. The students need to create a safe basis to
become comfortable and competent in their meetings
with all expressions of human sexuality; cultures, subcultures,
and individual variations.
