Abstract

The present study evaluated the affective, behavioral, and cognitive responses of 203 participants who were queried about their romantic partners’ potential financial infidelity as well as their own. Results were analyzed through the lens of the ABC model (affect, behavior, cognition) and indicated that participants would be much more upset and less accepting of their romantic partner if they filed for bankruptcy without their partner’s knowledge, gambled away money without telling their partner, lied to cover up a debt, kept a secret account, took out savings without consulting their partner, spent money on pornographic material without telling their partner, hid credit card statements, or kept a raise or a bonus secret. Further, the only behavior that elicited a willingness to leave the relationship was filing for bankruptcy without informing the romantic partner. Clinical implications and future research directions are also discussed.

当你的伴侣出轨:忠诚夫妻的财务不忠

目前的研究评估了203名参与者的情感、行为和认知反应，这些参与者被问及他们的浪漫伴侣和他们自己潜在的财务不忠。研究人员通过ABC模型(影响、行为、认知)对结果进行了分析，结果表明，如果参与者在伴侣不知情的情况下申请破产，在不告诉伴侣的情况下赌博，撒谎掩盖债务，保留秘密账户，在不咨询伴侣的情况下取钱，在不告诉伴侣的情况下花钱买色情物品，隐藏信用卡对账单，或者对加薪或奖金保密。此外，唯一能引起分手意愿的行为是在不通知恋人的情况下申请破产。并讨论了临床意义和未来的研究方向。
