Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool
it was developed by Symonds et al. (2007) to better define premature ejaculation for use in clinical studies, this is a 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 5 items. The scale was adapted to Turkish by Serefoglu et al. (2009). The highest score that can be obtained from the scale is 20.0 and the lowest score is 0.0. Scores higher than 11 are defined as "Premature Ejaculation", scores of 9-10 are defined as "possible Premature Ejaculation", and scores of eight or less are defined as "no Premature Ejaculation".
