Method
After obtaining institutional review board (IRB)
approval from both universities, a questionnaire was
administered to students enrolled in an undergraduate,
liberal arts course at a medium-sized Midwestern uni-
versity in 1999 (n ¼ 492) and to a human sexuality class
at a large Midwestern university in 2001 (n ¼ 371). The
samples were combined (N ¼ 863) for analyses because
no significant differences between groups were found for
age, t(861) ¼ .88, p ¼ .19; gender, X2 (1) ¼ 2.20, p ¼ .14;
or ethnicity, X2 (3) ¼ 1.99, p ¼ .57. Participants answered
96 items pertaining to demographics, religious back-
ground, political attitudes, relationship and sexual
history, and attitudes about what behaviors constitute
‘‘sex.’’ Twenty-four surveys (3%) were unusable and
removed from the sample because participants did
not answer all items pertinent to the following
analyses. Participants’ ages ranged from 18 through 24.
Twenty-one percent of participants indicated they were
freshmen, 30% sophomore, 11% junior, and 38% senior.
Sixty percent of the sample was female, and more than
90% were White. Sixty-four percent indicated that they
were currently in a romantic relationship. Only 1%
responded that they were legally married. Ninety-six per-
cent of the sample identified as heterosexual; 2% as
bisexual; and 2% as homosexual. The composition of
our nonheterosexual subsample mirrored Sanders and
Reinisch (1999) and Pitts and Rahman (2001), who
reported results for 96% and 97% heterosexual parti-
cipants, respectively.
A between-participants design, rather than a within-
participants design, was used to avoid carry-over effects.
Participants were randomly assigned to one of two
groups. With the exception of 11 items, each group
Only 36 percent of women in this study consider oral sex cheating.
