Introduction and hypothesis: Premature ejaculation potentially affects not only men but also their partners negatively. The null hypothesis for this study is Behavioral therapy given to men with premature ejaculation has no effect on the symptoms and their partners' sexual functions and quality of sexual life.
Methods: A quasi-experimental study. The current study was conducted in 84 men and their partners. The "Personal Information Form", "Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool (PEDT)", "Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)", and "Sexual Quality of Life-Female (SQOL-F)" were used to collect data. Behavioral therapy, consisting of a total of 6 sessions of 45 minutes, was applied once every two weeks.
Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Inclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria
-Men and their partners who did not meet all inclusion criteria were excluded from the present study.
Structured interviews, consisting of a total of 6 sessions, were held once every two weeks for men with premature ejaculation problems. Behavioral therapy took place once every two weeks for a total of six 45-minute sessions. The "stop-start technique" was the therapy used. Behavioral therapy interviews were conducted at the urology outpatient clinic of the hospital. Post-tests were administered to men with premature ejaculation (PEDT) and their spouses (FSFI and SQOL-F) immediately after the 6th session was completed.
Time frame: six weeks
it was developed by Symonds et al. (2007) to better define premature ejaculation for use in clinical studies, this is a 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 5 items. The scale was adapted to Turkish by Serefoglu et al. (2009). The highest score that can be obtained from the scale is 20.0 and the lowest score is 0.0. Scores higher than 11 are defined as "PE", scores of 9-10 are defined as "possible PE", and scores of eight or less are defined as "no PE".
Time frame: six weeks
Developed by Rosen et al. in 2000, the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) is a multidimensional scale consisting of six sections and 19 items evaluating female sexual function. The scale was adapted to Turkish by Aygin and Eti Aslan (2005). The scale contains six sub-dimensions: desire, arousal, lubrication (wetting), orgasm, satisfaction, and pain. The highest score that can be obtained from the scale is 36.0 and the lowest is 2.0. As the score obtained from the scale increases, sexual function improves. The simple mathematical algorithm calculation is organized to determine the scoring of the subscales and the entire scale. Factor loads were determined as 0.6 for desire, 0.3 for arousal and lubrication, and 0.4 for orgasm, satisfaction, and pain.
Time frame: six weeks
It was developed by Symonds et al. in 2005, the Sexual Quality of Life-Female (SQOL-F) is a six-point Likert-type questionnaire consisting of 18 items to evaluate women's sexual quality of life. Tugut and Golbasi (2010) adapted the questionnaire to Turkish in 2010. Each item addresses sexual life over the preceding four weeks. The questionnaire uses a 1-6 point system (1-totally agree, 2-strongly agree, 3-somewhat disagree, 5-strongly disagree, 6-totally disagree), and the range of points that can be obtained is between 18 and 108. As the score obtained from the questionnaire increases, the quality of sexual life increases.
