Sexual choices and behaviour involve complex cognitive and affective processes. Attribution theory remains a prominent social - cognitive model that may help explain such phenomena. In the present study, 198 undergraduates, separated by self - reported virginity status, completed russel's causal dimension scale and snyder's self - monitoring scale. The purpose was to determine whether different vriginity status groups make different causal attributions about virginity and sexual choices, whether self - monitoring influences this attribution process, and whether males and females differ in this regard. Results indicated a variety of statistically significant virginity status and gender differences in causal attributions. Self - monitoring, however, was not a significant covariate. Possible explanations for these results, and their implications, are discussed.
