AB  - In clinical practice, it is essential to be able to identify hypoactive sexual 
      desire disorder (HSDD), with its different severity levels and assess the 
      influence the subject's relationship has on the issue. In order to do this, 
      questionnaires are needed that comprise appropriate psychometric properties. We 
      analyzed the psychometric properties and factorial structure of the Sexual Desire 
      and Aversion (DESEA) questionnaire that evaluates sexual desire and interpersonal 
      stress (relationship problems) in male and female couples. A pilot study was 
      conducted with a group of 1583 people. Finally, it included 20,424 Spanish 
      speakers who answered the questionnaire via an online link. The requirements for 
      factor analysis were verified followed by the exploratory and confirmatory factor 
      analysis. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient calculated the reliability of the test 
      scores at 0.834 in the pilot group and 0.889 in the final group. A 3-factor 
      factorial design explains the 62.08% variance. The KMO (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin) test 
      (p = 0.904), Bartlett's test of sphericity (126,115.3; p = 0.000010) and the 
      matrix determinant (0.0020770) verified the appropriateness of the factor 
      analysis. The results show that the DESEA questionnaire is a reliable and valid 
      instrument for evaluating desire and interpersonal stress, both in women and men, 
      in clinical and research contexts.
