The study was in part based on previously reported data obtained from several samples (<jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20096193; 1976 men, 4217 women). Using Mokken Scaling Procedure, Item Response Model and redundancy analysis indicated that retaining three summary scales comprising five items each was the optimal solution for the brief version. The validity of the brief scale was tested with the Sexual System Functioning Scale (SSFS), the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale\u2013Short Form (ECR-S) and, the Hungarian version of the Attachment Style Questionnaire (ASQ-H; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009297, 127 men, 170 women). In addition, correlations between the long and brief versions of YSEX? with sociosexual orientation (SOI-R) and the five-factor personality construct (BFI-S) were compared (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20091024, 578 women, 446 men). The results suggest that the three summary scales of the Hungarian 15-item Form of the Why Sex Questionnaire (YSEX?-15H) provide reliable and valid measures of the previously affirmed three broad sexual motives (Personal Goal Attainment, Relational Reasons, Sex as Coping). The Relational Reasons summary scale was associated with secure emotional and sexual attachment. The Personal Goal Attainment and Sex as Coping summary scales showed coherent patterns of associations with the emotional and sexual aspects of secondary attachment strategies (over- and under-functioning). The YSEX?-15H offers both researchers and practitioners a concise and useful instrument for the assessment of sexual motivation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10508-022-02380-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,8]],"date-time":"2022-08-08T15:02:39Z","timestamp":1659970959000},"page":"4007-4022","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Why Hungarians Have Sex: Development and Validation of a Brief 15-Item Instrument (YSEX?-15H)"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"51","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4355-9563","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Norbert","family":"Mesk\u00f3","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andr\u00e1s N.","family":"Zsid\u00f3","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"B\u00e9la","family":"Birk\u00e1s","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cindy M.","family":"Meston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David M.","family":"Buss","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,8]]},"reference":[{"issue":"10","key":"2380_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1081","DOI":"10.1037\/bul0000157","volume":"144","author":"MS Allen","year":"2018","unstructured":"Allen, M.
