Infidelity

Palgrave, September 2015.

In Violence and Desire in Brazilian Lesbian Relationships, Allen examines the lives of Brazilian women in same-sex relationships. This examination contributes to interdisciplinary discussions of female same-sex sexuality, violence, race, and citizenship. Using fifteen months of ethnographic fieldwork, primarily with Afro-Brazilian women in the city of Salvador da Bahia, Allen argues that Brazilian lesbian women reject Brazilian cultural norms that encourage male domination and female submission through their engagement in romantic relationships with each other. At the same time Allen claims lesbian women also reproduce Brazilian cultural ideals that associate passion, intensity, and power with physical dominance through their engagement in infidelity and intimate partner violence. The book demonstrates that lesbian women are nonetheless marginalized as Brazilian citizens through widespread social and political invisibility despite these apparent displays of masculinized power.

They are our sisters, mothers, neighbors, and friends. They are the women whose marriages you think are “good”—or at minimum “fine.” But they are also the women who are online prowling for secret lovers to fulfill sexual desires and untapped passions. They did not “fall” into this. They weighed their options. And then they sought out and took a lover. And they’ve granted us a peek into their minds, psyches, and worlds.
Using a sample collected from Ashley Madison, a niche online dating site catering to married individuals seeking an affair partner, this book is the result of a yearlong inquiry into women’s extramarital experiences. Ultimately, these women reject the binary proposition of marriage that assumes that either we work on our marriages and remain monogamous within them, or we break up the relationship and take up other relationships. These women conceive of an alternate solution to a marriage that is not wholly working, where their own needs are ignored, unmet, and not prioritized. Thus, the women in this study are engaging in secret defiance of the expectations of marriage and primary partnerships. Many felt at the end of their capacity to endure in their primary partnership when they first sought an outside partner.
These women spoke of their primary partnerships as spaces of constraint, and their roles (“wives,” “girlfriends,” and “fiancée”) as limiting and restrictive. They spoke of their participation in outside partnerships as an exercise of power through autonomy and personal authority that their role as “wife” did not permit. These women were not mate-shopping, and most did not categorize their outside partnerships as ones of “love,” but as relationships of sexual utility. Outside partners provided much needed sexual release for women whose appetites exceeded their primary partner’s, or whose marriage was sexless. These women believed that their affairs helped them manage their emotional life and emotional responses to their primary partners, and ultimately enabled them to remain and endure in their primary partnerships.

Infidelity is commonly understood as hurtful communication because it involves a relational transgression and devaluation. This qualitative study of 65 women who survived a partner’s sexual affair expands the literature on infidelity and hurt by exploring its coexistence with intimate partner violence (IPV). IPV organizes the infidelity narratives into six categories: social, economic, emotional, and psychological
aggression as well as sexual and physical violence. Infidelity’s coexistence with IPV is not infidelity as a precipitating factor for IPV or infidelity as part of a pattern of violent or aggressive behaviors. Instead, in these narratives, infidelity embodies the aforementioned
forms of IPV.

The object of this investigation is the meanings given to fidelity and infidelity in romantic relationships, concerning contents, relationships between contents and meaning constellations. Scientific literature is usually focused on infidelity, with an intense moral connotation and with little conceptual differentiation. It was detected an absence of agreement between authors, concerning the construct “infidelity”, which has implications such as the inconsistency of published results. The empirical study had the goal of understanding people’s own conceptions about the matter. An open exploratory approach was then adopted, combining qualitative and quantitative methodologies: (a) written questionnaires were administered, mostly with open questions, to 226 adults; data was submitted to a statistic non parametric analysis, a content analysis and automatic analysis of textual information; (b) a deep approach to the meanings associated to fidelity and infidelity was carried through the content analysis of 29 individual oral semi-structured interviews. These analyses allowed observing a great diversity of contents: thus, it was proposed a multidimensional approach to fidelity and infidelity. Contents and relationships between them were associated in discursive patterns (“To be betrayed”, “To be unfaithful”, “Rational moralist”, “Pro-relational”, “I am always faithful” and “I am faithful to values”). These discourses were interpreted as meaning constellations, which coexist and switch in the same person (meta-meanings). A metaphorical relationship presented the extradiadic involvement as a significant of several signified meanings. It was proposed that this sign association emerges in the interaction of psychological needs (union, self value, security, discovery, sexual pleasure, among others) and social contexts that convey scripts about what a relationship ought to be (such as patriarchal, romantic, hedonic). It was observed that infidelity did not oppose symmetrically to fidelity, which means that we can’t deduce the first one through the second. Rather, they are better understood in a dialectical perspective, as inseparables and complementary, such as figure and landscape.

Considerable scholarly discussion has been given to the idea that we are moving toward a state of “posthumanism.” This essay examines some possible implications of a posthuman existence, specifically as it relates to that most basic of human needs—sexuality. I explore the spiritual aspects of sexuality to see what is lost and what is gained in technologically mediated forms of sexuality. To that end, I consider the interplay between sexual behavior and our conceptions of the sacred, how technologies are changing our views of—and realities concerning—our bodies, and the potential for a sacred posthuman sexuality.

Uno de los parámetros fundamentales de nuestra cultura es el desapego o distanciamiento emocional, término muy de moda en estos tiempos «post-newage» y que está generando mucha confusión no solo en la población sino entre profesionales y paraprofesionales. El giro zen en Occidente o su perversión: tomar distancia. Distanciarse de la experiencia, de la sensualidad, de la inmediatez, de la intuición, de la visceralidad, de las emociones en pro del intelecto, la razón, lo tangible. Evitar la identificación o la implicación emocional. La masculinización de la cultura, de la conciencia (Berman, 1992). Es conocido que la cultura patriarcal, calificada de homofóbica, valora poco la intimidad relacional o emocional. La proximidad emocional aterra a la masculinidad tradicional: «En las sociedades modernas el amor plantea una amenaza compleja a la situación de los hombres» (Illouz, 2014, p. 61). El ideal masculino vehiculado consiste en mantenerse a distancia: mantenerse a distancia de las mujeres, del amor, de los demás hombres, de la familia, de los hijos. «Las sociedades capitalistas han exigido a los hombres acumular riqueza y poder; sociológicamente, eso ha distanciado a los hombres del reino femenino de los sentimientos y la domesticidad» (Illouz, 2014, p. 63). La casi única fuente de acortamiento de dicha distancia que se autoriza-en lo que a las relaciones de pareja se refiere-se realiza a través del sexo. En otro contexto está el deporte. Anthony Giddens (1995) dice que el autocontrol masculino se origina en una dependencia emocional reprimida hacia las mujeres. Y para mantenerla estos deben mantenerse distanciados de las mujeres, considerando el compromiso y las cuestiones amorosas como trampas. Es más, no se permite que el hombre se rinda al amor, puesto que esta rendición sería como una abdicación del poder masculino frente al femenino de

W tej publikacji chcę podzielić się z czytelnikami swoją wiedzą dotyczącą uwarunkowań i mechanizmów działania oszustwa i zdrady, wpływu kłamstwa na relacje między bliskimi osobami, a także wskazać możliwości radzenia sobie z nieuczciwością zarówno w rodzinie, jak i w pracy. Książka ta nie jest typowym poradnikiem psychologicznym, ponieważ prezentuję w niej w wielu miejscach mój własny punkt widzenia. Zawiera ona także informacje daleko wykraczające poza wiedzę psychologiczną czy związaną z strategiami i technikami terapeutycznymi, takie jak elementy taktyki i techniki pozyskiwania informacji czy metody prowadzenia przesłuchania.
Głęboko wierzę, że książka Anatomia zdrady może być dla wielu czytelników praktycznym wsparciem w radzeniu sobie z zawsze trudnym i bolesnym problemem nieuczciwości w bliskich relacjach, zaś dla innych – źródłem informacji o uwarunkowaniach i profilaktyce wiarołomstwa w związkach a także zbiorem wskazówek o zwiastunach kryzysu.

According to the dictionary, infidelity means unfaithfulness to a sexual partner, and in layman terms this simply means that your girlfriend / wife or your boyfriend/husband could be cheating on you for someone else. No marriage, no matter how rich, religious, political or powerful, is immune to the threat of unfaithfulness, so say experts who give advice on how to survive infidelity.

Relationship Infidelity

Infidelity in a marriage or in relationship is a bitter pill to swallow. Not simply because we strive to make our relationships thrive and survive in an all-challenging world, but because nobody, including you, can live along successfully with this lie! Infidelity in relationship can happen to you!.

Relationship infidelity is ...

The face of Indian marriages is changing with time. With couples living in nuclear set ups, women becoming economically independent and social inhibitions getting fewer, boundaries in relationship are getting diffused and relationships outside marriage common. This article looks at extra-marital involvement when it involves sexual and emotional involvement with a partner outside marriage and its impact on marriage through a specific case report. The article outlines the discovery of infidelity in one partner and the consequent process of rebuilding the marriage in the context of couple therapy. As the process of therapy unfolds the role of therapist's assessment, handling disclosures, therapeutic intervention, dimensions of change in rebuilding marriage, and managing breach of trust during therapy are explored.

The binomial “fidelity-infidelity” is presently the focus of several
theoretical and empiric researches. The relevance of this field of studies is justified because infidelity is a phenomenon that is present in the life of couples and families implicating in damages and suffering for them, and challenges for the therapists, who work with demands of this kind. Yet, it is not necessary to be married to experience infidelity. All types of relationships
are subject to its disastrous influence. Little is known about which individuals are more susceptible to infidelity, or even, which contexts may promote it. This article tries to discuss this wide spread phenomenon that leaves so many people devoid of knowledge on the subject

This is a non-experimental descriptive study that aimed to explore the outlooks of the Filipinos today about infidelity. Specifically, it intends to determine if a double-standard still exists between men and women who engage in infidelity. A total of 8 individuals participated in the study. The outcome of the study discovered differences in the views of the respondents regarding the double-standard of infidelity on a personal and societal level.

Las emociones asociadas a la vivencia de la infidelidad, vista esta como una crisis de la pareja y siempre desde la perspectiva de quien está en el rol de infiel y de engañado,
están relacionadas con los significados que las personas han construido del amor y de la
fidelidad, con los mandatos culturales, morales y políticos sobre la vida en pareja y las estrategias de afrontamiento con que cuenta cada individuo.
La infidelidad opera como una manera de visibilizar el malestar y expresar la inconformidad,
que al ser descubierta inyecta emociones devastadoras y dramáticas, descritas como una
sensación de muerte, con la vivencia de síntomas emocionales y físicos, que deterioran
la calidad de vida y desempeño normal de las tareas cotidianas, así como la proliferación de sentimientos polarizados que van desde la frustración, la impotencia, la decepción, el
firme deseo de dañar o vengarse del infiel hasta deseo de luchar por la reconstrucción afectiva, la materialización de perdón y restauración de la esperanza.

Dahil ang Pilipinas ay isang patriyarkal na lipunan, kinikilala ng mga Pilipino ang pagiging dominante ng mga lalaki sa iba’t ibang aspekto ng pakikisalamuha, mula sa gobyerno at trabaho hanggang sa pamilya at relasyon. Dahil dito, nakatuon ang mga nakaraang pag-aaral sa naratibo at karanasan ng kalalakihang sila ang may hawak ng kapangyarihan, lalo na sa usapin ng kanilang pangangaliwa—na itinuturing na mas katanggap-tanggap sa lipunan kompara sa pangangaliwa ng mga babae. Gayunpaman, madalas hindi nabibigyang-pansin ang mga pangyayaring nakukuwestiyon ang pagiging makapangyarihan ng mga lalaki, gaya ng pagtataksil sa kanila ng karelasyong babae. Nais naming tugunan sa pananaliksik na ito ang kakulangan sa literatura at kaalaman ukol sa pangangaliwa ng mga babae at kung paano binibigyang-kahulugan ng kanilang mga karelasyong lalaki ang karanasang ito. Layon din naming malaman ang kanilang paraan ng pag-igpaw at pagbangon mula sa ganitong mga karanasan. Panghuli, nais naming pagtuunan ng pansin ang naging epekto ng pagtataksil ng kanilang kapareha sa kanilang pananaw sa sari-saring aspekto ng kanilang búhay. Kinapanayam namin ang sampung Pilipinong lalaking naninirahan sa Luzon at nakararanas ng pangangaliwa sa iba’t ibang antas ng kanilang relasyon. Ang bawat panayam ay aming sinuri gámit ang Discourse Analysis upang magkaroon ng mas malalim na pag-unawa sa kanilang naratibo at
malaman kung paano sumasalamin ang wikang kanilang ginamit sa kanilang pagtingin at pagbibigay-kahulugan sa kanilang dinanas. Lumabas sa pananaliksik ang sumusunod na mga tema: ang paninisi sa kaparehang babae ngunit hindi sa karibal na lalaki, ang hindi pagbanggit at hindi pagharap sa karibal, at ang pagsasawalang-bahala sa nangyari. Ang lahat ng ito ay umiikot sa konsepto ng kahihiyan. Sa kanilang pananaw, ang pangangaliwa ng kanilang karelasyon ay kabawasan sa kanilang pagkalalaki. Dahil dito, ang kanilang mga aksiyon matapos ang ganitong karanasan ay nakatuon sa pagbuong muli ng kanilang reputasyon o imahen sa lipunan at sa pagbawi sa kanilang dangal at pagkalalaki.

This article challenges disempowering stereotypes about Other
Women by investigating how they negotiate power in imbalanced romantic relationships. This study defines an Other Woman as a woman who engages in a sexual relationship with a man who is in a committed sexual relationship with an Initial Woman. In these instances, a man’s infidelity can be characterized as a form of interpersonal power whereby he controls the rewards and costs the women involved with him experience. Employing an interpretive description methodology, this qualitative essay analyzes 35 narratives to consider how Other Women respond to men’s infidelity as interpersonal power by realizing their personal power. An exploration
of Other Woman interaction with the symbolic “me,” “him,” “her,” and “us” components of an affair reveals underrepresented personal empowerment strategies Other Women use, including (a) increased self-concept, (b) prioritized pleasure, and (c) acknowledged personal growth.

Jensen and Meckling (1994) discuss five alternative models of human behavior and conclude that humans are predominately categorized as being in the resourceful, evaluative, maximizing model (REMM). According to Jensen and Meckling (1994) REMMs are everywhere. Jensen and Meckling (1994) summary the concept where REMM consists of a number of postulates regarding their nature.

Emotional Promiscuity (EP) refers to how easily and often an individual falls in love . This dissertation sought to elaborate the construct of EP, validate a questionnaire measure, and investigate the implications of EP for health and well-being. EP is first defined and then conceptually distinguished from relevant variables in the relationships literature such as: romantic idealism, sexual promiscuity, and attachment.

RESUMEN
En este artículo se pone de relieve el dolor y el sufrimiento consecuencia de la infidelidad, en un contexto sociocultural que, de manera contradictoria, pretende primar el amor romántico, una construcción patológica dado que genera ilusiones, distorsionando e idealizando la relación amorosa. Relación fuera de la realidad, engañosa pero anhelada por la esperanza que porta. En una sociedad postmoderna en donde los vínculos y las relaciones están siendo sustituidas por redes y contactos superficiales, la fidelidad puede resultar paradójica, aunque deseada y requerida. Hay verdaderas y reales dificultades para poner fin a las relaciones y, como consecuencia, se quiere y pretende superar la infidelidad. La fidelidad se entiende como un contrato consensuado de exclusividad y la infidelidad se define como la violación y traición de ese contrato. Traición vivenciada por muchas personas como traumática y los síntomas que éstas presentan, coinciden con los síntomas descritos en el diagnóstico de estrés postraumático.

ABSTRACT
This article would like to emphasize the pain and the suffering result of infidelity, in a socicultural context that, somewhat contradictorily, it aims to prioritize romatic love, a pathological construction, since it generates illusions, distorting and idealizing the love relationships. Relathionships outside of reality, misleading but desired because of hope. In a post-modern society in which bonds and relationships are beeing replaced by social networks and casual relationships, the fidelity can result a desired and yearned paradoxe. There are real and truly difficulties to finish the relationships and, as a result, people want to overcome the infidelity. The fidelity is understandood as consensual ad exclusiveness contract and then, infidelity is understood as a violation and betrayal of this contract. Betrayal lived by many people like a trauma and the symptoms that they presents, seems to correspond to the postraumatic stres disorder.
Key words: fidelity, infidelity, romantic love, sociocultural construct, pain, suffering, resentment, anger, trauma, postraumatic estrés disorder.

King Lear is one of the most famous tragedies by the great Elizabethan playwright William Shakespeare. Perhaps this is the most exceptional play by Shakespeare not only for its protagonist’s being an old-aged man who is nearly at the end of his life, but also for its artistic blending of good and evil forces through the whole action-line of the play. Here, as the protagonist is an old king, it is expected that he should have possessed some worldly wisdom being experienced by his lifetime achievements in this world. But unfortunately, the actual happening is the other way round – King Lear, the old king, is trapped by the devilish activities of the evil forces. And this very play, King Lear, is often criticized for its contents of too much exaggeration of the evil forces and their frequent victory over the good ones rejecting the traditional ‘poetic justice’.

La infidelidad es una realidad que de manera trascendental Impacta las relaciones de pareja y de familia, por lo tanto realizar una investigación que describa los diversos significados que respecto a ésta los seres humanos han construido, resulta relevante no sólo para la persona que los construye, sino también para los profesionales que acompañan a las parejas e individuos que se enfrentan a este tipo de crisis.

Introducción Una de las grandes dificultades en la terapéutica de la infidelidad es la de comprender realmente el fenómeno de la infidelidad, así como las secuelas que provoca en muchas personas directa o indirectamente. Observamos una carencia metodológica en el tratamiento psicológico de esta compleja situación, haciendo que la intervención en no pocos casos haya sido-y continúe siéndolo-poco rigurosa, tiñéndose así, más de prejuicios que de postulados científicos frutos de investigaciones. Efectivamente, la terapia en esta cuestión tiende a la dispersión, acorde con los valores de cada profesional, cayendo en ocasiones en una incomprensión, que lejos de ayudar, perjudica. Si bien la infidelidad no parece tener el estatus de tabú, si parece constituir un hecho científicamente poco conocido, ya que no se le ha dado un espacio digno en el conocimiento. Efectivamente, la ciencia no le ha otorgado el lugar que socialmente parece tener. Por el contrario, alcanza una amplia presencia en la esfera artística, particularmente en la literatura y el cine. Urge prestar atención a toda la sintomatología que provoca dicho fenómeno, particularmente en las personas que la sufren. La infidelidad llega a muchas personas como un tsunami, arrasándolo todo. Este hecho, para muchas víctimas, es vivido como un auténtico trauma que paraliza sus vidas durante años, sin llegar a veces a saber si realmente se ha superado o no. En bastantes personas afectadas por la infidelidad, el proceso de superación resulta

Abstract
Extra-marital affairs are common in the US and frequently result in difficulties for individuals, families, and society.  The psychological literature, however, does not provide adequate client-centered treatment directions for those who have affairs and seek psychotherapy for this issue.
In an attempt to begin to address this gap in the literature, a descriptive phenomenological psychological study, a method that has the goal of articulating the general structure of an experience, in a pretheoretical manner, was undertaken.  Results suggest areas of further inquiry and may imply directions for psychotherapeutic praxis with those who have had affairs.

The current study investigated the influence of Machiavellianism, a personality trait characterized by a manipulative interpersonal style and willingness to exploit others , on three areas of sexual behavior. Men (N = 90) and women (N = 192) aged 18-81 years (M = 25.82, SD = 9.85) completed the Mach high levels of Machiavellianism were more likely to engage in sexual behavior for physical reasons, goal attainment and insecurity. In particular, Machiavellian men and women endorsed stress reduction, experience seeking, resources, social status, revenge, utilitarian reasons, boosting self-esteem, duty/pressure, and mate guarding as motivations for sexual behavior. Machiavellianism was also a significant predictor of each form of sexual deception investigated (blatant lying, self-serving and avoiding confrontation) and intentions to engage in infidelity. Sex did not moderate the influence of Machiavellianism on sexual behavior.

In the present dissertation, infidelity is analysed ‘as performance’ in the frame of contemporary heterosexual relationships in Western society. There are two basic aims from several branches of inquiry. Firstly, I attempt to analyse and display a structure of infidelity that allows questioning the couple formation as we know it. Secondly, I aim to explore the double-standard between two kinds of betrayal, namely infidelity and surveillance. Both convey deception, lies and dishonesty. Theoretical and fictional material are both used to develop the arguments and extract from them the behaviour, body performance and reification of infidelity. I aim to be a weaver who uses theoretical and fictional threads to build a pattern where betrayal appears as a fractal figure.

A görög mitológiától a művészetekig, a történelemtől az irodalomig, a magánbeszélgetésektől a vallásokig, a pszichoterapeuta rendelőjétől a bírósági tárgyalóteremig, a matematikai Nobel-díj hiányának anekdotikus magyarázatán keresztül az élet minden területén találkozunk a házastársi hűség kérdésével. Nem csoda hát, hogy az ezzel foglalkozó viccek igen gyakoriak és népszerűek. A viccet más kisepikai műfajokhoz képest kevéssé tanulmányozták. Ennek valószínű oka a vicc (tévesen feltételezett) komolytalansága és (esetenkénti) szalonképtelensége. Pedig érdemes a vizsgálatra, mert az új, szokatlan összefüggéseket keresi, ki meri mondani a tabukat, a viccanyag tükrözi a társadalmat és a közszemléletet, valamint saját változásával valós időben követi ezek változását. Elemzése tehát releváns és tanulságos. A vizsgálat során a következő kérdésekre várunk választ:-a viccek milyen fontosságot tulajdonítanak a hűségnek-mi a hűtlenség oka, megnyilvánulási formája, elfogadottsága, gyakorisága, kölcsönös-e, kiderül-e-milyen a kapcsolat az esetleges szerelmi háromszögben/sokszögben, mik a szereplők jellemzői (foglalkozás, kor, etnikum)-a viccek más képet adnak-e a férfiakról, mint a nőkről ebben az összefüggésben; az eltérő képet indokolhatják a két nem között tapasztalható szemlélet-és viselkedésbeli különbségek-férfi mentalitást tükröznek-e 3 ; ez azért képzelhető el, mert a vicceket-ahogy ez a humoros alkotásokra általában jellemző-többnyire férfiak alkotják és adják tovább-inkább szüzsé-vagy formulaviccek. A vicc komolytalanságáról beszélni maga is komolytalan. Ehhez két adalék: Freud (1982) komolyan foglalkozott vele; a leghumortalanabb, legelnyomóbb rendszerek megkülönböztetett figyelemben részesítik, mint veszélyeset, esetleg véresen komolyan üldözik. Az anyósviccek döntő többsége köztudottan a férfi anyósát figurázza ki; a házastársak papucs alatt tartásáról szóló viccek is szinte kivétel nélkül a férfiak saját maguk iránti részvétéről tanúskodnak. Ez természetesen nem azt jelenti, hogy a fiús mamák jobbak, vagy hogy általában a feleség nyomná el a férjet.

Dark Triad traits (narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy) are characterized by manipulation, emotional coldness, and a lack of empathy. The current studies investigated the influence of Dark Triad traits on heterosexual women's infidelity and romantic revenge. For Study 1, women (N = 102) completed the Mach IV, NPI-16, Levenson Self-Report Psychopathy Scale, bespoke Infidelity Experience Scale, Intentions Towards Infidelity Scale, and Susceptibility to Infidelity Instrument. Findings demonstrated that Dark Triad traits predict prior experience of infidelity, intentions to engage in infidelity and perceived susceptibility to a partner's infidelity. Narcissism and secondary psychopathy were the most influential traits. For Study 2, women (N = 108) completed the aforementioned Dark Triad trait measures and responded to a hypothetical scenario describing a partner's infidelity. Dark Triad traits predicted each type of revenge assessed except willingness to terminate the relationship. Secondary psychopathy was the only Dark Triad trait to emerge as a significant individual predictor. Together, these studies demonstrate that Dark Triad traits predict women's own infidelity, their perceived vulnerability to a partner's infidelity and revenge in response to this infidelity. Findings also highlight the importance of distinguishing between primary and secondary psychopathy.

El origen adaptativo de las emociones humanas ha quedado evidenciado por la investigación actual, pero ha sido escasa la integración de la comprensión de fenómenos afectivos más complejos, como los celos románticos. Esta investigación aborda las predicciones de la Psicología evolucionaria acerca de la función de los celos, diseñando dos experimentos acerca de la psicofisiología que emerge al evocar situaciones de infidelidad mediante imaginería y films, respectivamente. Se postula que la infidelidad sentimental provocará en mujeres una configuración de dolor distinguible de la de los hombres, y que éstos últimos reaccionarán con rabia ante la infidelidad sexual. Participaron 24 personas en el primer estudio y 36 en el segundo. Los resultados confirman diferencias sexuales en el tipo de infidelidad más disruptiva, y la prevalencia de mayor dolor femenino y rabia masculina. La psicofisiología que acompaña la expresión de celos en mujeres, se configura en más de un factor fisiológico complejo que podría reflejar expresión de dolor, mientras que en los hombres aparece una sola dimensión que posiblemente los prepara para la acción agresiva. Se discute la coherencia de los resultados con los planteamientos  Agradecimientos: El trabajo con material cinematográfico ha sido apoyado por el proyecto Mecesup2 USA 607 del Ministerio de Educación y la Universidad de Santiago de Chile.

Considering both the prevalence of infidelity and the preoccupation in the U.S. with achieving personal happiness, the question of whether participating in affairs increases perception of life satisfaction is a relevant one. This study utilized a sample population of married individuals specifically seeking extramarital sexual encounters (n=1070) and investigated those factors which influence the individual’s overall perception of life satisfaction before, during, and after their affairs. Findings indicate that while affairs do tend to make respondents happy, a number of factors influence perception of life satisfaction during an affair, including a belief that an outside partner is required to remain in a primary partnership, a desire to remain in the primary partnership, at least biweekly sexual events with the outside partner, a belief that the individual loves their outside partner, and seeking out the partnership due to sexual dissatisfaction within the primary partnership. There was also a gender effect. A surprising finding was that even after the outside partnership ends, respondents reported a higher life satisfaction rating than before the outside partnership.

This study aimed to examine the levels of the intentions toward to fidelity
inemerging adults and adults in terms of different variables. The study group
consists of 438 adult individuals (338 female and 100 male) aged between 18 and
65 years, who are married, engaged or have a romantic relationship, which the
researcher has reached through various social media accounts and some groups on
Facebook. The data in the study were collected through the personal Infirmation
Form and Intentions Towards Infidelity Scale. Independent sample t test, and oneway
ANOVA were used to analyze the data. According to the study results, it was
found that the levels of intention towards infidelity of the male participants and the
participants in the flirting stage are significantly higher. However, the levels of
intention towards infidelity of participants do not differ according to age, education
level and social media usage time.

This study utilized the lens of contextual therapy to explore the influence of parental infidelity on adult children’s perceptions of relational ethics in their relationship with their partners. A predominantly female sample (N = 411) completed a survey about trust, fairness, and loyalty within their current romantic relationship. Results showed a significant relationship between fathers’ infidelity and lower levels of horizontal relational ethics, and participants’ own participation in infidelity partially mediated the relationship between fathers’ infidelity and horizontal relational ethics. The relationship between mothers’ infidelity and relational ethics was not significant. Recommendations for clinical practice and future research are discussed.

Este estudo procurou compreender significados associados à fidelidade e à infidelidade nas relações amorosas. 226 pessoas responderam a um questionário, construído para o efeito, com perguntas abertas e fechadas. Os dados foram tratados através de análise automática de dados textuais, que os agrupou em seis classes, interpretadas como padrões discursivos. Três discursos associaram-se, reflectindo o posicionamento do sujeito face a uma situação de infidelidade: "Ser infiel", "Ser traído" e "Moralista racional" (uma perspectiva externa face à infidelidade). Quanto à fidelidade, observou-se um discurso "Pró-relacional", rico na diversidade de significados relacionais, e, em contraste, dois discursos sucintos e centrados na afirmação e nos motivos de ser fiel ("Sou sempre fiel." e "Sou fiel aos valores"). Estes discursos diversos estiveram, tendencialmente, presentes no interior da mesma pessoa, como múltiplos "seres" dentro de nós.

La experiencia clínica nos habla fundamentalmente de dos maneras de ser infiel: aquellas con o sin implicación emocional, pudiendo ser, éstas, ocasionales o habituales. Lo diferencial parece ser la implicación emocional. No se otorga el mismo significado a una infidelidad con implicación emocional que a una sin ella, aunque en ambas haya habido sexo.
La fenomenología de la infidelidad también nos desvela ciertos patrones de comportamiento caracterizados por una serie de actitudes y aptitudes, desvelando así que la infidelidad está más correlacionada con cuestiones de personalidad y culturales que con problemas de pareja. Así, las pautas de comportamiento en la infidelidad parecen repetirse de una determinada manera según ciertas características de personalidad, definiendo no solo la forma en que la infidelidad se manifiesta, sino también de cara a predecirla.
