The purpose of this research was to test the hypothesis that when an individual's romantic partner is sexually unfaithful the individual will be more angry with and aggressive toward the partner than the third party. 40 college men and women participated in this study. Each subject rated how angry and aggressive he or she would be toward him- or herself, the partner, and the third party if the partner were unfaithful. Intensity of love, degree of commitment, and mode of anger/aggression expression were also investigated. Support was found for the hypothesis.
当一个人的恋爱伴侣发生性不忠行为时,这个人对伴侣的愤怒和攻击性会比对第三方更强。40名大学生男女参与了这项研究。每位受试者都对如果伴侣不忠,自己对自己、伴侣以及第三方会有多愤怒和多有攻击性进行了评分。研究还调查了爱的强度、承诺程度以及愤怒/攻击性行为的表达方式。研究结果支持了这一假设。
