Yöntem: Çalýþma grubu DSM-IV-TR taný ölçütlerine göre CÝB tanýsý alan 78 evli kadýn ve 23 evli erkek ile onlarýn eþlerinden (n=202), karþýlaþtýrma grubu CÝB olmayan evli çiftlerden (n=200) oluþmuþtur. Katýlýmcýlara Kiþisel Bilgi Formu, Mizaç ve Karakter Envanteri (MKE), Golombok-Rust Cinsel Doyum Ölçeði (GRCDÖ), Çift Uyum Ölçeði (ÇUÖ) uygulanmýþtýr.

Sonuç: Siklotimik karakter, zarardan kaçýnma ve kendini yönetme özelliklerinin CÝB için bir risk faktörü olduðu söylenebilir. CÝB olan çiftlerde evlilik uyumu ve cinsel doyum azdýr.
