Zusammenfassung: | Penile plethysmography--or phallometric assessment--is a very relevant evaluation for sexual health. The objective of this research is to suggest a guideline to validate sexual stimuli and validate a set of sexual stimuli to assess "normative" sexual behavior in Colombian young heterosexual men. Six videos of 3:15 minute-long were used. A total of 24 men were assessed. Objective sexual arousal, the International Index of Erectile Function-5, Self-Assessment Manikin, Multidimensional Scale to Assess Subjective Sexual Arousal and socio-psycho-sexual questions were used. The results showed three sexual excerpts which were clearly superior to the others --something discordant with the subjective opinion of researchers. These three sexual excerpts generated internally consistent measurements; moreover, good indicators of external validity have been observed with statistically significant differences as expected. Furthermore, with a small healthy Colombian young population, it has been shown that the three stimuliproduce objective sexual arousal if used together. Keywords Penile plethysmography; factorial structure; phallometric assessment; reliability; validity; sexual stimuli. La pletimosgrafia peneana--o la medicion falometrica--es una importante forma de evaluar la salud sexual. El objetivo de esta investigacion es sugerir un procedimiento para validar estimulos sexuales y validar un set de estimulos sexuales para evaluar comportamientos sexuales "normativos", en formato de video, en hombres colombianos jovenes y heterosexuales. Se utilizaron seis videos de 3:15 minutos de duracion. Se evaluo un total de 24 hombres. Se evaluo la excitacion sexual objetiva, el cambio rapido en la temperatura periferica, el pulso y se empleo el indice Internacional de Funcion Erectil-5, el Self-Assessment Manikin, el Multidimensional Scale to Assess Subjective Sexual Arousal y preguntas socio-psico-sexuales. Los resultados muestran tres videos sexuales cortos, los cuales fueron notoriamente superiores a los otros evaluados y diferian de la opinion subjetiva de los investigadores. Estos tres videos sexuales generaron medidas de consistencia interna; ademas, se observaron buenos indicadores de validez externa con diferencias estadisticas significativas, segun lo esperado. Se demostro que, al menos, en una pequena muestra de jovenes colombianos sanos los tres estimulos producen excitacion sexual objetiva sise emplean juntos.
