The condition has been subdivided into three other sub conditions: attentionexhortation, attention-reprimand, and attention-stimulation. To intervene in the speeches of erectile dysfunction participant opted for the use of an intervention program through the design of alternate treatments of type ABCDA followed by follow-up. The results showed that reports of erectile dysfunction occurred more frequently in conditions of attention-exhortation, attention-simulation and a demand. However the design of alternate treatments, such reporting decreased gradually during the design phases and reached zero frequency, as the appropriate lines increased their occurrences.
