Full textAbstract:
This study represents the first attempt to study sexual jealousy in a random community sample. Jealousy was reported by all subjects. Men, when jealous, were particularly concerned about the potential loss of the partner, whereas women were more concerned with the effects of infidelity on the quality of the relationship. Behaviours such as searching the partner's belongings or inspecting their clothes for signs of sexual activity correlated with unusually intense jealousy. Men tended to cope with jealousy by using denial and avoidance, whereas women were more likely to express their distress and to try to make themselves more attractive to their erring partner. Greater jealousy concerns were expressed by young men who had either married early or were now living without a partner. Heavy drinkers and those reporting more psychiatric symptoms were also more prone to jealousy. A clear correlation emerged between lowered self-esteem and increased jealousy, which was particularly marked in women, for whom robust self-esteem was virtually incompatible with high jealousy concerns. The study supported the prosaic notion that those who are satisfied with their romantic attachments are less prone to jealous suspicions. This study offers a starting point for the clinician seeking information about the experience of jealousy in the community.

Full textAbstract:
Jealousy is defined as one of the most common automatic responses to endangering a relationship by a third party, and in evolutionary psychology it has the function of maximizing self-reproduction fitness, ensuring paternity security in men, and maintaining partner's resources in women. These include romantic jealousy, in men assuring certainty of paternity, and in women assuring the maintenance of partner's resources. Thus, according to this logic, a woman’s sexual infidelity should be more threatening for men and a man’s emotional infidelity (emotional involvement with other women than a primary partner) should be more threatening for women. Many previous studies confirm the existence of sex differences in jealousy; men reporting a higher level of sexual jealousy and women reporting a higher level of emotional jealousy. On the contrary, studies of romantic jealousy in homosexual individuals show inconsistent results. Some studies suggest that the type of sexual and emotional jealousy does not depend on the sex of the individual who is jealous, but rather on the sex of the partner or the sex of the rival. Therefore, the aim of this review is to introduce romantic jealousy from an evolutionary perspective and to acquaint the reader with current knowledge of the study of cognitive, emotional and behavioral aspects of romantic jealousy in heterosexual and homosexual men and women.

Full textAbstract:
The specific innate modular theory of jealousy hypothesizes that natural selection shaped sexual jealousy as a mechanism to prevent cuckoldry, and emotional jealousy as a mechanism to prevent resource loss. Therefore, men should be primarily jealous over a mate's sexual infidelity and women over a mate's emotional infidelity. Five lines of evidence have been offered as support: self report responses, psychophysiological data, domestic violence (including spousal abuse and homicide), and morbid jealousy cases. This article reviews each line of evidence and finds only one hypothetical measure consistent with the hypothesis. This, however, is contradicted by a variety of other measures (including reported reactions to real infidelity). A meta-analysis of jealousy-inspired homicides, taking into account base rates for murder, found no evidence that jealousy disproportionately motivates men to kill. The findings are discussed from a social-cognitive theoretical perspective.

Full textAbstract:
Background and purpose: Previous studies have shown that men are more sensitive to sexual infidelity, while women are more sensitive to emotional infidelity. Studies have also shown that jealousy is evoked by the rival’s desirable characteristics. Therefore, it was assumed that women would be more jealous of a woman with a feminine face, while men would report greater levels of jealousy when presented with a rival with a masculine face. It was also predicted that these expected differences would depend on the infidelity type – sexual and emotional. Based on this, the aim of this study was to investigate differences in jealousy in relation to participants’ sex, the type of infidelity and the rival’s facial sexual dimorphism. Materials and methods: The study included 401 (164 men and 237 women) participants, aged between 18 and 35. Jealousy was assessed by using hypothetical scenarios of a partner’s emotional and sexual infidelity that involved rivals with a masculine and feminine face. Participants reported the intensity of jealousy on a 7-point scale. Results and conclusions: As predicted, men reported higher levels of jealousy over sexual, whereas women were more upset over emotional infidelity. Moreover, while there was no difference in jealousy among men in relation to the rival’s facial sexual dimorphism, women reported a higher intensity of jealousy toward a rival with a feminine face, regardless of the infidelity type. These results are interpreted by different adaptive mechanisms in men and women.

The author analyzed associations of jealousy with demographic variables for 144 South-Italians. Hansen's hypothetical jealousy-producing events, modified into a bivalent form, were submitted to both partners of 72 married couples. High jealousy of couples having no children and living in the country was noted. Men were more jealous than women. Involvement with hobbies and weekly meetings with friends produced less jealousy than friendship with the opposite sex. No differences resulted between subjects of differing ages and lengths of marriage

Full textAbstract:
The two evolutionary psychological hypotheses that men react more jealous than women to sexual infidelity and women react more jealous than men to emotional infidelity are currently controversial because of apparently inconsistent results. We suggest that these inconsistencies can be resolved when the two hypotheses are evaluated separately and when the underlying cognitive processes are considered. We studied jealousy with forced‐choice decisions and emotion ratings in a general population sample of 284 adults aged 20–30 years using six infidelity dilemmas and recordings of reaction times. The sex difference for emotional jealousy existed for decisions under cognitive constraint, was also evident in the decision speed, increased for faster decisions, and was stronger for participants with lower education. No evidence for a sex difference in sexual jealousy was found. Our results support the view of a specific female sensitivity to emotional infidelity that canalizes the development of an adaptive sex difference in emotional jealousy conditional to the sociocultural environment.

Full textAbstract:
Every human being in this world has a jealous attitude that has been felt by both men and women. In the younger generation which is a generation in the early stages of maturity jealousy often occurs especially for young couples who are in a dating relationship. Jealousy usually occurs due to a partner affair done through online media or the use of the internet as a medium to communicate with third people. This study aims to find out the extent to which differences in jealousy in men and women that are consistently found in real life can also be found in modern life which involves the use of internet technology. The method used in this research is a quantitative research method. This research was conducted in Indonesia by involving young people in it. In taking the research sample, several characteristics of the participants had to be met, including participants aged 20 to 40 years, single, had at least a high school education, and used the internet for at least 7 hours per week. The results showed that there was a significant difference in female participants in jealousy facing emotional and sexual types of infidelity via the internet and vice versa. In addition, the majority of people in Indonesia, especially young people or students in Indonesia, use social media, and jealousy between partners is often expressed on social media, and young people in Indonesia are easily influenced by the times

Personal Information Form, Romantic Jealousy Scale, The Experiences in Close Relationship Scale-II, Relationship Satisfaction Sub-Scale of Relationship Stability Scale have been used as data collection tools in this study.
 Results of analysis show that there is a positive correlation between relationship satisfaction and romantic jealousy. Results show that attachment styles are considerable predictors of romantic jealousy level; that jealousy increases as anxious attachment increases; that jealousy decreases as avoidant attachment increases; and also that there is a weak positive relation between avoidance and anxiety dimensions of attachment. Moreover, there has been a negative relation between avoidant attachment and relationship satisfaction. Findings show that sex and relationship type have significant roles in jealousy, that women are more jealous than men, especially those who are flirting are more jealous than those who are married. It has been seen that relationship type is effective in attachment and those who are flirting are more anxiously attached than those who are married.

The paper analyzes the symptoms and signs of the pathological jealousy, its diagnostic and treatment complex of measures, its socially dangerous risk factors, course of the jealousy disease’s phenomenology in schizophrenic patients on the examples of classical outpatient and clinical cases. Special attention is paid to jealous and obsessive-compulsive men, who are inclined to dramatization and theatricalization of affective outbursts of deviant behavior. The complex setbacks of the Othello syndrome in its late stages as well as documentary cases of bringing suffering women to suicide are described. The article’s content explains the variations of the jealous men’s subconscious tries to avoid understanding of the inconsistency of their “evidences” of mythical betrayals. The most typical diseases associated with the Othello syndrome are enumerated in the given article. The connection between the psychiatric anamnesis and the degree of active disease recurrences of jealousy is given. Verbal examples of typical fantasies of jealous people “with a background experience” are fixed, as well as the main paradoxical plots of their evidence base. The paradigmatic cases of jealousy objects to prove their love and devotion are usually initiated in vain, the psychological irrational groundings for the impossibility of the unfaithful spouse “rehabilitating” in the eyes of a person with progressive Othello syndrome are mentioned.

Previous issue date: 2015-02-27<br>The crime of passion is a sociocultural phenomenon that affects public health. It is the act of extreme violence between couples, which occurs when the individual is taken by a sense of passion and intense emotion, going berserk in a situation of threat or loss of the object of love. The field of interest of this research is understanding the motivations for carrying out the crime of passion, the perceptions upon the act on individuals deprived of liberty, the insight into the emotional aspects linked to the crime committed, and the comprehension of offenders perception about the prison experience. Survey participants were offenders who committed the crime of passion against intimate partners, and were imprisoned in a detention facility in Viana, Angola. This study has a qualitative nature, utilizing a semi-structured interview as a research tool. The sample selected for the survey included 17 male participants, among which four were awaiting trial and thirteen had already been convicted. The age of respondents ranged between 26 and 54 years old. Categories were defined after the analysis of the contents of interviews. The theoretical approach was the psychodynamic psychology, which helped us understand the behavior of the subjects. The results revealed that the main reasons pushing the individuals to the crime of passion were jealousy and betrayal arisen by the presence of a rival, real or imaginary, stimulating the subject to evoke a mixture of thoughts, feelings, emotions and behaviors that aroused in him lack of control, intolerance and frustration, mobilizing him to the act of extreme violence<br>O crime passional é um fenômeno sociocultural que afeta a saúde pública. É o ato de violência extrema entre casais, que ocorre quando o sujeito é tomado por um sentimento de paixão e emoção intensa, descontrolando-se diante de uma situação de ameaça ou perda do objeto de amor. A presente pesquisa tem como campo de interesse a compreensão das motivações para a realização do crime passional, as percepções sobre o ato em sujeitos privados de liberdade, a apreensão dos aspectos emocionais ligados ao crime cometido e a percepção dos infratores a respeito da vivência carcerária. Os participantes da pesquisa eram infratores que cometeram crime passional contra as parceiras íntimas, e se encontravam encarcerados no estabelecimento prisional de Viana, em Angola. O método de estudo utilizado é de caráter qualitativo, e o instrumento de investigação foi a entrevista semiestruturada. A amostra selecionada para a pesquisa reuniu 17 participantes do sexo masculino, dos quais quatro se encontravam à espera de julgamento e treze já tinham sido condenados. A faixa etária dos entrevistados situava-se entre 26 e 54 anos de idade. As categorias foram definidas após a realização da análise do conteúdo das entrevistas. A abordagem teórica foi a psicologia psicodinâmica, que nos ajudou a compreender o comportamento dos sujeitos. Os resultados apontaram que os principais motivos que impulsionaram os sujeitos ao crime passional foram o ciúme e a traição, que surgiram com a presença de um rival, real ou imaginário, suscitando no indivíduo a evocação de uma mistura de pensamentos, sentimentos, emoções e comportamentos que nele despertaram descontrole, intolerância e frustração, mobilizando-o para o ato de violência extrema

This study investigated responsibility attributions for a partner's emotional infidelity and for a partner's sexual infidelity, and the likelyhood that the victim or partner would end the relationship. This study found a significant relationship between responsibility attributions for a romantic partner's unfaithfulness and the likelihood the relationship would end: the stronger the attributions of personal responsibility the more likely the relationship would dissolve.

Full textAbstract:
This research aimed to explore the narratives of romantic jealousy in the context of infidelity
for heterosexual and homosexual men from Johannesburg South Africa. This study takes on a
qualitative approach using a narrative analysis in combination with a structural and thematic
content analysis. The narratives of the heterosexual and homosexual men revealed the role
which jealousy plays in every relationship, and how it can affect the emotions and behaviours
of both partners. This study found that the narratives of these men were in contradiction to
what evolutionary theories as well as past research on the topic have suggested. Evolutionary
perspectives propose that heterosexual men are more inclided to sexual infidelity, this was
however found to be in contradiction to the beliefs and ideas held by the participants of this
study. Heterosexual participants of this study reported that for them emotional infidelity
would be more jealousy provoking, as it would be a sure indication that the relationship
would end. Past research findings on the other hand have suggested that homosexual males
are more inclined to emotional infidelity, as they do not face the risk of cuckholdry. However
the same can not be said for the narratives of the homosexual participants of this study. The
narrative of all except for one homosexual participant indicated that homosexual men felt that
they would be greatly affected by sexual infidelity rather than emotional infidelity. There
explanations revolved around the open ended nature and ease of access to sex which is
prevalent in the gay community. It is also important to note that simmilarly to the
heterosexual group, most of the participnats who experienced sexual jealousy also
experienced sexual infidelity. Indicating a link between the type of infidelity you experience
to the type of jealousy you feel.
This research identified that heterosexual participants felt that in their live stories they found
emotional jealousy to be the worst apsect of infidelity while homosexual men felt that sexual
jealousy was the worst aspect of infidelity.

Full textAbstract:
Elsie Clews Parsons (1874-1941) and her husband Herbert Parsons (1869-1925) present a very different pattern of conflict and accommodation in a marriage shaped by the wife’s determination to work. Both Elsie and Herbert came from wealthy and prominent New York families. When they married in 1900, after a six-year courtship, Elsie was an atheist, a feminist, and a social rebel who openly challenged female stereotypes and traditional roles. A Ph.D. in sociology, she was teaching at Barnard College and insisted on keeping her job. Herbert, a deeply religious and rather staid man, was a successful lawyer and politician. Although Elsie and Herbert seemed mismatched, I argue, in contrast to other of Elsie’s biographers, that their marriage was a love match. Their troubles began after Herbert was elected to Congress in 1904. Elsie gave up her teaching job, moved to Washington with their two children, and had four more children (two died shortly after birth). When the controversial views she espoused in her first book set off a public furor that offended and embarrassed Herbert, she stopped publishing under her own name. A few years later, she was wracked with jealousy when she thought he had fallen in love with another woman. Elsie and Herbert did not divorce, but they led increasingly separate lives after they returned to New York in 1911. Elsie organized her personal and domestic life around two new careers. After establishing a foothold in the feminist, bohemian intellectual world in Greenwich Village, she became a sought-after, influential social critic, writing for The Masses and The New Republic. Then she connected with Franz Boas’s professional circle and became a highly respected anthropologist, studying indigenous peoples in the American Southwest, the Caribbean, and South America. Elsie had two lengthy love affairs, with the architect Grant LaFarge, and the novelist Robert Herrick. She deliberately chose lovers who – unlike Herbert – were adventurous, interested in her work, and eager to travel with her. In the late teens and twenties, her relationship with Herbert gradually improved, in part because he took on more responsibility for their four surviving children. His unexpected death in 1925, while she was involved with Herrick, was a blow for Elsie. Deeply in love with Elsie, Herrick wrote about her in several novels and short stories in the 1920s. Initially supportive of her work, he became increasingly jealous of her success and deeply angry at being reduced to what he thought was a subordinate role in her life. His last book about her, published in 1932, several years after their affair ended, cruelly disparaged her and her work. Elsie was repeatedly disappointed by the men in her life, but she never stopped trying to implement her feminist vision of a more equitable and intimate relationship grounded in work rather than domestic life.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter explores how young Italians met and chose their marriage partners, drawing primarily on the evidence from diaries and memoirs. One of the key themes of this chapter is how and why men and women remembered courtship, love, and marriage differently. Men tended to describe strong, open, and definite feelings of love in courtship, while women were much more likely to recount doubt, hesitation, ambivalence, or indifference. Reaching adulthood in post-war Italy had very different meanings for men and women, with men typically leaving home for military service and migration while women were more likely to remain with their families until their wedding. Love, marriage, home, and family thus had different meanings in their lives. While arranged marriages were becoming less common in these decades, the strong role played by family in courtship meant that it was often difficult to distinguish an arranged marriage from one that was not. With the rise of mass culture, men and women also began to measure their own experiences against romantic ideals, often to see them falling short. Experience of illness and disability marked many courtships, especially in the late 1940s and early 1950s, when malaria, tuberculosis, and pneumonia were common. In some cases this proved to be a barrier to marriage, although attitudes were beginning to change in the late 1950s. Class was also crucial in determining suitability, although it was family that was the ultimate arbiter.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Jealousy occurs when one feels an actual or potential intimate relationship is threatened by a real or imagined rival. This chapter shows that the psychological experience of jealousy is associated with physical and hormonal characteristics. Particularly, the focus is on the distinction between possessive jealousy and reactive jealousy in humans and other species. Possessive jealousy is a preventive reaction that often results in mate guarding. Among human males, possessive jealousy aims to prevent investment in offspring sired by another male, whereas among human females, it seems to have evolved to obtain and preserve the investment of males in offspring and for disease avoidance. Possessive jealousy is related to cultural factors, such as parental control of mate choice, life history (in particular attachment style and father absence), and domestic violence. Regarding reactive jealousy (i.e., the responses to actual sexual and emotional intimacy with a third person), we discuss sex differences in emotional versus sexual jealousy, how reactive jealousy is experienced, and the variables to which it is related. Jealousy implies by definition a rival, and assessing the threat of a rival is a basic, adaptive mechanism rooted in intrasexual competition. This aspect of jealousy may also occur when one has not yet established a relationship but is trying to obtain a mate. In the context of the evaluation of rivals, we focus in particular on sex differences and similarities in the rival characteristics that evoke jealousy among heterosexual, homosexual, and transgender men and women.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter charts experiences of marriage breakdown and attitudes towards separation from the late 1940s to the 1970s. Although divorce was not legal until 1970, legal separations were permitted in this period. This chapter thus makes use of evidence from a case study of legal separations in late 1940s and 1950s Turin and from a smaller sample of diaries and memoirs that provide a broader geographical picture. While many of these writers separated in the 1970s, 1980s, and later, this chapter argues that the roots of breakdown can frequently be found in the economic miracle years, when the growing media focus on romantic love often did not match up to the reality of married life. Just as women were more likely to be ambivalent about their wedding, they were much more likely than men to ask for a separation or divorce. What we see also in these years is perhaps not simply greater dissatisfaction in marriage, but new languages to comprehend and give shape to it. The idea of marriage for love was key to the divorce campaigns, although the reality was that it was still very difficult for a woman to leave her marriage even up to the 1970s. While we see alternative narratives about love, marriage, and commitment developing from the unofficial culture around the post-war PCI to 1968, this chapter shows how work and feminism often gave women the tools they needed to leave their marriages.

Abstract The ancient Greeks defined man’s place in the universe through his relation to the gods. The very fact that the word “mortal,” 0vT}’t6i;, was as legitimate a designation of man as the word “man” proper clearly indicates that the existence of the “immortals,” a0ava’tot, was a necesary factor in man’s self-definition. It was generally recognized that between men and gods there was a gap that could not be bridged. To quote what Homer makes Apollo say to Diomedes, who dared to raise his weapon against the god: “Never think yourself the gods’ equal - since there can be no likeness between the make of immortal gods and of men who walk on the ground.” Any attempt at transgressing the line dividing men and gods was considered a religious offense which was inevitably followed by punishment from the gods. “The jealousy of the gods,” cp06voi; 0erov, and “trespassing,” ul3pti;, known to us only too well from Greek sources, are the two ideas that illuminate the nature of the phenomenon with great precision.

Gender differences in jealously have been traced back to both socio-cultural, as well as to evolutionary sources. The evolutionary approach predicts similar gender differences to be found in all cultures. Socio-cultural explanations, however, suggest that the patterns of gender differences may be culture-specific. The current study investigated gender differences in the relations between jealousy and infidelity in Mexico. 537 participants (248 men; 289 women) filled out an inventory of jealousy and infidelity, respectively. The results show first a positive relationship among infidelity, anger, fear, suspicion, frustration and distrust. Second, the data reveal a clear gender difference in that men desired sexual and emotional infidelity relationships more often than women. These findings are discussed regarding the importance of culture.

Turbomachinery design systems are usually the jealously guarded property of large companies, the author is not aware of any for which the source code is freely available. The present paper is aimed providing a freely available system that can be used by individuals or small companies who do not have access to an in-house system. The design system is based on the 3D CFD solver Multall, which has been developed over many years. Multall can obtain solutions for individual blade rows or for multi-stage machines, it can also perform quasi-3D blade-to-blade calculations on a prescribed stream surface and axisymmetric throughflow calculations. Multall is combined with a one-dimensional mean-line program, Meangen, which predicts the blading parameters on a mean stream surface and writes an input file for Stagen. Stagen is a blade geometry generation and manipulation program which generates and stacks the blading, combines it into stages, and writes an input file for Multall. The system can be used to design the main blade path of all types of turbomachines. Although it cannot design complex features such as shroud seals and individual cooling holes these features can be modeled and their effect on overall performance predicted. The system is intended to be as simple and easy to use as possible and the solver is also very fast compared to most CFD codes. A great deal of user experience ensures that the overall performance is reasonably well predicted for a wide variety of machines. This paper describes the system in outline and gives an example of its use. The source codes are written in FORTRAN77 and are freely available for other users to try.
