Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate college students’ sexual attitudes (liberal/conservative) and sexual regret. The research focused on the difference between males and females in the amount of sexual regret. Another primary focus was to determine if there was a correlation between sexual attitudes and sexual regret. Allegheny College undergrad students (N=113) completed three different questionnaires that asked questions about their levels of sexual regret and their attitudes towards sex. Males and females did not significantly differ in the amount of sexual regret they had. However, the correlation between sexual attitudes and sexual regret was found to be significant. Further research could determine if gender is a factor in predicting sexual regret. Also further research could bridge the gap between the variables of attitudes towards sex and sexual regret.
