Specifically, results indicated that joviality was related to same-day sexual desire and predicted increased desire the following day. This latter relation was partially mediated by sexual activity. Further, greater sexual desire predicted next-day calmness, which was partially mediated by sexual activity. Notably, fear was related to same-day subjective arousal, lubrication, orgasmic function, and vaginal pain, whereas poorer orgasmic function predicted greater next-day sadness.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>These findings describe the manner in which changes in affect correspond to variations in female sexual function, thus highlighting the inextricability of mental and sexual health. Further, these findings may offer insight into the progression of normative levels of affect and sexual function as they develop into comorbid depression, anxiety, and sexual dysfunction.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jsm.12712","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,9,30]],"date-time":"2014-09-30T03:38:40Z","timestamp":1412048320000},"page":"2938-2954","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Daily Affect and Female Sexual Function"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"David A.","family":"Kalmbach","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry \u00a0 \u00a0 , Ann Arbor, MI , Italy"},{"name":"Sleep and Chronophysiology Laboratory \u00a0 \u00a0 , Ann Arbor, MI , Italy"},{"name":"University of Michigan \u00a0 \u00a0 , Ann Arbor, MI , Italy"},{"name":"Department of Psychology \u00a0 , Kent, OH , Italy"},{"name":"Kent State University \u00a0 , Kent, OH , Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vivek","family":"Pillai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sleep Disorders & Research Center \u00a0 , Detroit, MI , Italy"},{"name":"Henry Ford Hospital \u00a0 , Detroit, MI , Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"573","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cpr.2009.06.007","article-title":"Sexual dysfunction in depression and anxiety: Conceptualizing sexual dysfunction as part of an internalizing dimension","volume":"29","author":"Laurent","year":"2009","journal-title":"Clin Psychol Rev"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"436","DOI":"10.1080\/0092623X.2012.665813","article-title":"The role of trait-affect, depression, and anxiety in women with sexual dysfunction: A pilot study","volume":"39","author":"Oliveira","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Sex Marital Ther"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib3","article-title":"Female sexual desire and trait-affect: The mediator role of depressed mood","author":"Peixoto","year":"2008"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1681","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1743-6109.2008.00838.x","article-title":"Risk factors of female sexual dysfunction in the general population: Exploring factors associated with low sexual function and distress","volume":"5","author":"Hayes","year":"2008","journal-title":"J Sex Med"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1497","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1743-6109.2012.02709.x","article-title":"Bidirectional association between depression and sexual dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"9","author":"Atlantis","year":"2012","journal-title":"J Sex Med"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1063","DOI":"10.1037\/0022-3514.54.6.1063","article-title":"Development and validation of brief measures of positive and negative affect: The PANAS scales","volume":"54","author":"Watson","year":"1988","journal-title":"J Pers Soc Psychol"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"297","DOI":"10.1111\/1467-9280.00157","article-title":"On the dimensional and hierarchical structure of affect","volume":"10","author":"Tellegen","year":"1999","journal-title":"Psychol Sci"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"205","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00995536","article-title":"Diurnal variation in the positive affects","volume":"13","author":"Clark","year":"1989","journal-title":"Motiv Emotion"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"219","DOI":"10.1037\/0033-2909.98.2.219","article-title":"Toward a consensual structure of mood","volume":"98","author":"Watson","year":"1985","journal-title":"Psychol Bull"},{"key":"2024032602353851500_bib10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"15","DOI":"10.1037\/0021-843X.104.1.15","article-title":"Testing a tripartite model: II.
