Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of the Male Post-coital Affect Scale (MPAS), which was developed to assess positive post-coital feelings in men.
METHODS: After a pilot study, we validated our scale on a sample of American heterosexual men, who answered our questionnaire on the internet through Amazon Mechanical Turk. We tested the reliability using internal consistency. The validity was examined by assessing content, face and construct validity by testing the association between our scale, the Experience in Close Relationships Scale and other instruments.
RESULTS: A total of 484 volunteers were included in the study. Cronbach\'s α for the scale was 0.83. Our scale was negatively correlated with attachment avoidance, r(482) = -0.36, p < 0.001) and Perceived Stress Scale, r(482) = -0.18, p < 0.001, and positively correlated with sexual satisfaction, r(482) = 0.18, p < 0.001.
CONCLUSIONS: The MPAS is a reliable and valid tool to assess positive post-coital feelings in men.

摘要：
目的：本研究的目的是检验男性性交后情感量表（MPAS）的信度和效度，这是为了评估男性积极的性交后感觉而开发的。
方法：经过初步研究，我们在美国异性恋男性样本上验证了我们的量表，谁通过亚马逊机械土耳其人（MTurk）在互联网上回答了我们的问卷。我们使用内部一致性测试了可靠性。通过评估内容来检查有效性，通过测试我们的量表之间的关联，亲密关系的经验量表和其他工具。
结果：共有484名志愿者被纳入研究。克伦巴赫的α为0.83。我们的量表与依恋回避呈负相关，r(482)=-.36，p<.001)和感知压力量表，r(482)=-.18,p<0.001,与性满意度呈正相关,r（482）=.18，p<0.001。
结论：男性性交后情感量表是评估男性性交后情感的可靠有效工具。
