Ljubomora je složena emocija koja uključuje kombinaciju misli, osjećaja i ponašanja koji se pojavljuju kao posljedica percepcije osobne prijetnje i/ili prijetnje odnosu. U dosadašnjim istraživanjima utvrđena je povezanost konstrukta ljubomore s brojnim faktorima. Jedan od najčešćih faktora koji je usko povezan s ljubomorom je zadovoljstvo u romantičnoj vezi. Glavni cilj istraživanja bio je utvrditi razinu ljubomore te zadovoljstvo romantičnom vezom s obzirom na neke sociodemografske karakteristike (rod, veze na daljinu/veze na blizinu). U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 150 sudionika (64 muškarca i 86 žena) u dobnom rasponu od 18 do 54 godine. 108 sudionika je izjavilo da je u „vezi na blizinu“, a 42 sudionika su izjavila da su u „vezi na daljinu“. Za utvrđivanje razine pojedinih komponenti ljubomore (kognitivna, emocionalna i bihevioralna) korištena je Multidimenzionalna skala ljubomore (Pfeiffer i Wong, 1989) validirana na hrvatskom jeziku (Kalebić i sur., 2000). Kao mjera zadovoljstva vezom korištena je Skala zadovoljstva brakom (Ćubela Adorić i Jurević, 2006), koja je također prilagođena za ispitivanje zadovoljstva u vezama. Obradom rezultata, utvrđena je značajna razlika između muškaraca i žena na mjeri kognitivne ljubomore, muškarci su bili ljubomorniji od žena. Na ostalim dimenzijama ljubomore nije bilo značajne razlike. Muški i ženski sudionici bili su u podjednakoj mjeri ljubomorni. Nadalje, utvrđena je značajna razlika u razini ljubomore s obzirom na vrstu veze. Sudionici koji su u „vezama na daljinu“ iskazuju više razine ljubomore od sudionika koji su u „vezama na blizinu“. Također, utvrđena je značajna negativna povezanost zadovoljstva vezom i komponenti kognitivne i ponašajne ljubomore. Sudionici kod kojih je utvrđen viši stupanj zadovoljstva vezom, ujedno su imali niže razine kognitivne i ponašajne ljubomore. Između emocionalne ljubomore i zadovoljstva vezom nije utvrđena značajna povezanost. Jealousy is the combination of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that develop as a result of the perception of a personal threat and / or threat to a relationship. Previous studies have identified a link between the jealousy construct and a number of factors. One of the most common factors closely related to jealousy is satisfaction in a romantic relationship. The aim of this study was to determine the level of jealousy and satisfaction with a romantic relationship in regards to some sociodemographic characteristics (gender, long distance relationships /close proximity relationships). The study involved 150 individuals (64 male and 86 female) aged between 18 and 54 years. Also, 108 participants stated that they were "in a close proximity relationship" and 42 participants stated that they were "in a long distance relationship". To determine the level of individual components of jealousy (cognitive, emotional and behavioral) the Multidimensional Jealousy Scale (Pfeiffer & Wong, 1989) was used, validated in Croatian language (Kalebić et al., 2000). The Marriage Satisfaction Scale (Ćubela & Jurević, 2006) was used as a measure of relationship satisfaction, which was also adapted to examine satisfaction in romantic relationships. The results have shown statistically significant difference in cognitive jealousy between men and women. Men were more jealous than women. On other dimensions of jealousy there was no significant difference between men and women. Male and female individuals were equally susceptible to other dimensions of jealousy. Furthermore, a significant difference was found in the level of jealousy in regards to the type of relationship. Participants who are "in a long distance relationship" have a greater level of emotional, behavioral and total jealousy than participants who are "in a close proximity relationship". Also, a significant negative correlation was found between relationship satisfaction and cognitive, behavioral and total jealousy. Participants who were found to have higher levels of relationship satisfaction, also have lower levels of cognitive, behavioral and total jealousy. There was no significant correlation between emotional jealousy and relationship satisfaction. |
