Resumo
A finalidade desta investigação foi estudar a (in) satisfação conjugal, procura de sensações e motivações para a infidelidade.
Os instrumentos utilizados foram “Escala de Avaliação da Satisfação da Vida Conjugal” (EASAVIC), “Sensation-Seeking Scale – V” e “Motivations for Infidelity Inventory” (MII).
Como critérios de seleção, os participantes deveriam encontrar-se numa relação heterossexual com uma duração mínima de 2 anos. O sistema de recolha de dados utilizado foi o modelo e-survey.
A investigação de natureza transversal, recolheu uma amostra de conveniência, não probabilística constituída por 243 participantes com uma média de idades de 41,22 anos (DP=11.60), que variaram entre os 22 e os 79 anos. A maioria dos participantes era do género feminino (n= 133; 54,7%), casado (n= 134; 55.1%), apresentava formação académica ao nível do secundário (n=88; 36.2%) e encontrava-se empregado (n= 201; 82.7%).
Quanto aos resultados, os homens mostraram níveis significativamente mais elevados de satisfação conjugal na área de funcionamento [t (235.78)= 3.04; p=.003], na área do amor [t (238.61)= 2.35; p=.019] e satisfação conjugal global [t (238.17)= 2.87; p=.004] quando comparados com as mulheres; os homens mostraram níveis significativamente mais elevados do que as mulheres no que respeita à infidelidade [χ(1)=16.49; p= .000]; a infidelidade física/sexual foi superior nos homens e a infidelidade emocional foi superior nas mulheres [χ(1)=24.41; p= .000]; os participantes que ponderaram vir a ser infiéis ao (à) seu (sua) companheiro(a) apresentaram índices significativamente mais elevados de procura de sensações [t (241)= 5.13; p=.000]; e participantes com elevados níveis de procura de sensações (SS) apresentaram níveis significativamente mais elevados de motivações para a infidelidade do que pessoas com baixos níveis de procura de sensações [t (241)= -5.64; p=.000].
The goal of this investigation was to study the conjugal (in) satisfaction, sensation seeking and motivations to infidelity. The tools used were “Escala de Avaliação da Satisfação da Vida Conjugal” (EASAVIC), "Sensation-Seeking scale - V" and "Motivations for Infidelity Inventory" (MII). As a selection criteria, all the participants needed to be in a heterosexual relationship for a minimum duration of two years. The data collection system used was the 'e-survey' model. The natural transverse investigation, collected an unbiased sample consisting of 223 participants with an average age of 41.22 years (DP=11.60), which varied in between 22 and 79 years old. The majority of the participants were of the female gender (n=133; 54.7%), married (n=99, 55.1%), had completed a high school education (n=88, 36.2%), and were employed (n=201, 82.7%). When it comes to the results, men had significantly higher levels than women of marital satisfaction in the area of functioning [t (235.78) = 3.04; p = .003], in the area of love [t (238.61) = 2.35; p = .019] and overall marital satisfaction [t (238.17) = 2.87; p = .004]; men had significantly higher levels than women when it came to infidelity [χ(1)=16.49; p= .000]; physical/sexual infidelity was superior in men and emotional infidelity was superior in women [χ(1)=24.41; p= .000]; the participants that thought of being unfaithful to their partners had significantly higher levels of sensation seeking [t (241)= 5.13; p=.000]; the participants with high levels of sensation seeking (SS) were highly motivated towards infidelity compared to individuals with lower levels of sensation seeking [t (241)= -5.64; p=.000].
