Resumen

The aim of the study was to analyze the location and distribution of the items of the Scale of Attitudes toward Sexual Behaviors (SASB) in heterosexual and bisexual women and to verify the existence of differential item functioning. A total of 897 women between 18 and 35 years of age answered the scale. The results show that, in general, the location and distribution of the items is similar in heterosexual and bisexual women. The items referring to online sexual behaviors with an occasional partner are the ones with the highest scores and frequent sexual behaviors with a steady partner and solo masturbation are the ones with the lowest scores. Only in the item referring to the threesome is there a difference in logit scores slightly higher than .5 between heterosexual and bisexual women. Therefore, the SASB is an instrument with adequate psychometric properties from the IRT in heterosexual and bisexual women.
