Declarations
:
: The authors report no conflicts of interest.
: Specific ethical considerations have been taken in all phases of this project, since individuals with ABI are considered a vulnerable group and the topic of personal sexuality is sensitive. This study was performed in line with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki, and ethical approval was obtained from the Ethical Review Board in Lund, Sweden (EPN: 2017 799).
: The postal survey consisted of the study-specific questionnaire, a pre-paid envelope for responding, and information about the study, including how confidentiality was secured, emphasizing that participation was voluntary, and that consent could be withdrawn at any time without giving a reason. Returning a completed questionnaire was considered giving consent to participate. The letter also provided information about how to get in contact with a non-profit counselor for sexual issues, if needed.
