三项研究测量了参与者想象伴侣不忠时的心理生理反应(心率、血压和皮肤电活动)。嫉妒中性别差异的特定先天模块理论假设,男性因性不忠而感到不安,女性因情感不忠而感到不安,因为他们面临着不同的适应性挑战(分别是通奸和失去配偶资源)。这种观点没有得到支持。在男性中。性不忠图像比情感不忠图像引起更大的反应。但是,即使不涉及不忠,性意象也会引起更大的反应,这表明不同的反应可能并不具体表明更大的嫉妒。在两项具有合理功效的研究中,女性对情感不忠的反应并不强烈。此外,有过忠诚性关系经历的女性表现出与男性相似的反应模式。假设的不忠自我报告与反应性无关。
Three studies measured psychophysiological reactivity (heart rate, blood pressure, and electrodermal activity) while participants imagined a mate's infidelity. The specific innate modular theory of gender differences in jealousy hypothesizes that men are upset by sexual infidelity and women are upset by emotional infidelity, because of having faced different adaptive challenges (cuckoldry and loss of a mate's resources, respectively). This view was not supported. In men. sexual-infidelity imagery elicited greater reactivity than emotional-infidelity imagery. But, sexual imagery elicited greater reactivity even when infidelity was not involved, suggesting that the differential reactivity may not specifically index greater jealousy. In two studies with reasonable power, women did not respond more strongly to emotional infidelity. Moreover, women with committed sexual relationship experience showed reactivity patterns similar to those of men. Hypothetical infidelity self-reports were unrelated to reactivity.
