Laypeople's Attitudes Towards the Sexuality of People with Learning Disabilities in Greece

The present study examines the attitudes of the Greek public towards the sexuality of people with learning disabilities (LD). Participants of three Greek towns completed a copy of the GSAQ-LD. Results indicated that age and level of education had a consistent effect on attitudes whereas other variables such as gender, social class, marital status, and contact with a person with LD did not consistently influence participants' attitudes. Furthermore, attitudes towards the sexuality of people without LD were more contemporary than were attitudes towards different aspects of the sexuality of the LD.
