Initially, I chose to keep these two groups together to see how they did on the depression scale in comparison to the general population. They didn't fair too well. The general population on this particular measurement score about a 6.5 on depression. When I looked at individuals who viewed pornography at least 3-5 times a week they averaged almost 18. According to the particular scale, this would equate to moderate depression. Next, if we broke the frequency down even further and asked what is the difference between individuals who view pornography daily and those who view it 3-5 times a week. The answer surprised me. Individuals who view pornography daily scored in the severe depression range (over 21) while those who viewed porn 3-5 times a week averaged a little above 15--still not great but not severe depression. http://www.psychologytoday.com...
