Abstract

The specific innate modular theorists have claimed that men are innately more upset by a mate's sexual infidelity and women are more upset by a mate's emotional infidelity because the sexes faced different adaptive problems(for men, cuckoldry; for women, losing a mate's resources). The present study examined the replicability of the results of JSIM(Buss et al., 1992) for Korean adults(including college students) sample. Another purpose of the study was to rule out the explanations of the double-shot hypotheses(DeSteno & Salovey, 1996). Additionally, moderating effects of age, educational level, religion, occupation, marriage status, and attachment style based on the social-cognitive hypotheses(Harris, 2003b) were examined. 300 adults men and women completed forced-choice hypothetical measures. Results of the study replicate the findings of JSIM. Men more frequently chose the sexual infidelity scenario as most upsetting than women, whereas women more frequently chose the emotional infidelity scenario as most upsetting than men. Contrary to the double-shot explanation, choice of scenario was unrelated to two for one possibility. Interaction effects of sex with demographic and psychological factors also were not found. Results of the study were discussed in relation with JSIM and social-cognitive theory and previous studies. Alternative view of jealousy was suggested for the future research.
