CALDERON-PEREZ, Yanning; FLORES-GALAZ, Mirta Margarita y RIVERA-ARAGON, Sofía. Jealousy and infidelity in heterosexuals and homosexuals: Intracultural study. Acta de investigación psicol [online]. 2018, vol.8, n.1, pp.17-28. ISSN 2007-4719. https://doi.org/10.22201/fpsi.20074719e.2018.1.02.
Because of the constant changes in society, becomes important to investigate and respond to the social demands raised, in order to promote the psychosocial well-being of people and the improvement of their interpersonal relationships. Currently, the issue of jealousy and infidelity have social relevance, as both are involved in immediate environments, such as family, work, personal relationships, roles and self-evaluation; generating negative consequences. Based on this, the present research aimed to establish the relationship between jealousy and infidelity depending on the type of sexual orientation (homosexual and heterosexual), sex (male and female) and birthplace (Mexico City and Colima). The participants were 186 people, 50% of whom were from the Mexico city and 50% from the State of Colima. At the same time, the sample involved 101 men and 85 women. The Multidimensional Scale of Jealousy (EMUCE) developed by Rivera, Flores, Díaz-Loving and Montero (2010) and the Multidimensional Inventory of Infidelity (IMIN) by Romero, Rivera and Díaz-Loving (2007) test were applied. It was found that men are usually sexually unfaithful regarding their sexual orientation. On the other hand, for both homosexual and heterosexual women, when there is a transgression to the relationship, the desires of sexual and emotional infidelity appear as a consequence. The outcomes are analyzed according to the socio-cultural context.
