摘要: The two evolutionary psychological hypotheses that men react more jealous than women to sexual infidelity and emotional are currently controversial because of apparently inconsistent results. We suggest these inconsistencies can be resolved when the evaluated separately underlying cognitive processes considered. studied jealousy with forced-choice decisions emotion ratings in a general population sample 284 adults aged 20–30 years using six dilemmas recordings reaction times. sex difference for existed under constraint, was also evident decision speed, increased faster decisions, stronger participants lower education. No evidence found. Our results support view specific female sensitivity canalizes development an adaptive conditional sociocultural environment. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
