Abstract Rezultati brojnih istraživanja potvrđuju da su muškarci ljubomorniji na seksualnu, a žene na emocionalnu nevjeru. Ove razlike u ljubomori nastale su zbog različitih evolucijskih pritisaka s kojima su se muškarci i žene suočavali tijekom evolucijske povijesti (nesigurnost u očinstvo za muškarce i cijena napuštanja za žene). Stoga se oni mogu nazvati distalnim odrednicama seksualne i emocionalne ljubomore. Nadalje, pojedinčevu sklonost prema seksualnoj ili emocionalnoj ljubomori mogle bi oblikovati i varijable poput samomotrenja i socioseksualnosti. Uz to, postoji velika nekonzistentnost među rezultatima istraživanja o razlikama u ljubomori s obzirom na iskustva vezana uz romantične veze (status veze, iskustvo predane seksualne veze i povijest iskustava s nevjerama). Stoga je cilj ovog istraživanja ispitati razlike u seksualnoj i emocionalnoj ljubomori s obzirom na spol, samomotrenje, socioseksualnost i iskustva vezana uz romantične veze te utvrditi prediktivne doprinose tih varijabli u objašnjenju varijance seksualne i emocionalne ljubomore. Istraživanje je provedeno putem online ankete na uzorku od 510 sudionika, odnosno 230 muškaraca i 280 žena u dobi od 19 do 28 godina. Rezultati potvrđuju evolucijsku hipotezu. Konkretno, muškarci su ljubomorniji na seksualnu, a žene na emocionalnu nevjeru. Kad je riječ o razlikama između muškaraca i žena u samomotrenju i socioseksualnosti, muškarci pokazuju višu sposobnost modificiranja samopredstavljanja te izraženije stavove prema kratkoročnoj reproduktivnoj strategiji i permisivnije prijašnje seksualno ponašanje nego žene. Nadalje, nisu utvrđene razlike u seksualnoj i emocionalnoj ljubomori s obzirom na samomotrenje. Vezano uz socioseksualnost i ljubomoru na dvije nevjere, dobiveno je jedino da su pojedinci izraženijih stavova prema dugoročnoj reproduktivnoj strategiji ljubomorniji na emocionalnu nevjeru u odnosu na pojedince niske izraženosti istih stavova. Uz to, nema razlika u ljubomori na dvije vrste nevjere s obzirom na iskustva vezana uz romantične veze. Konačno, dobiveno je da je emocionalna ljubomora vjerojatnija za žene, osobe izraženijih stavova prema dugoročnoj strategiji i osobe s iskustvom predane seksualne veze.
Abstract (english) Numerous studies confirm that men are more jealous of sexual infidelity, and women are more jealous of emotional infidelity. These differences in jealousy are developed because of different evolutionary pressures faced by men and women during evolutionary history (paternity uncertainty for men and cost of abandonment for women). Therefore, they can be considered as a distal determinants of sexual and emotional jealousy. Furthermore, an individual's tendency to sexual or emotional jealousy may also be shaped by variables such as self-monitoring and sociosexuality. Additionally, there is a great inconsistency between findings of studies on differences in jealousy with regard to romantic-related experiences (relationship status, experience of committed sexual relationship, history of infidelity experiences). Hence, the aim of this study is to examine the differences in sexual and emotional jealousy with regard to sex, self-monitoring, sociosexuality and romantic-related experiences and to determine the predictive contributions of these variables in explaining the variance of sexual and emotional jealousy. The study was conducted via online survey on a sample of 510 participants– 230 men and 280 women, ranging in age from 19 to 28 years. The results confirm evolutionary hypothesis. Specifically, men are more jealous of sexual, and women of emotional infidelity. Regarding the differences between men and women in self-monitoring and sociosexuality, men show a higher ability to modify self-presentation and stronger attitudes toward short-term reproductive strategy and more permissive previous sexual behavior than women. There are no differences in sexual and emotional jealousy with regard to selfmonitoring. Concerning sociosexuality and jealousy, it was only found that individuals with stronger attitudes toward long-term strategy are more jealous of emotional infidelity than individuals with weak attitudes. There are no differences in jealousy of two infidelities with regard to romantic-related experiences. Finally, it was found that women, individuals with stronger attitudes toward long-term strategy and individuals who have experienced committed sexual relationship are more likely to get jealous at partner's emotional infidelity.
