A study at Keuka College investigated the ways in which gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, race/ethnicity and religiosity affects the relationship between different forms of jealousy, infidelity, and sociosexuality. A sample of 202 college students ranging from ages 18-29 were selected in a random sample and administered surveys measuring all of these variables. The findings suggest that males are more likely to commit sexual infidelity and sociosexuality. The finding also suggest that the higher the religiosity the less likely one is to commit emotional infidelity and sociosexuality. This study also found that socioeconomic status and race/ethnicity had no effect on the committance of infidelity and sociosexuality. My results state that gender, socioeconomic status, race/ethnicity, and religiosity had no effect on the type of jealousy felt. Sexual orientation as unable to be tested due to an uneven distribution of the different types of sexuality. These results will help revolutionize the way that people view relationship factors and jealousy.
