Reply to comment by nyxnars in Jealousy may depend on the interplay of gender, sexual orientation, and gender of the rival by chrisdh79

I do wonder about how they define it.. psych is a fuckin mess. It's not a study on neurological-jealousy that I can see (brain wants what someone else has).

From reading the article, they are defining jealousy as:

"being upset with romantic partner b/c of their relationship with another person"

Or something like that. Which is super dumb. You can be pissed at your spouse or their paramour without being "jealous"

Ok cool! Someone else is wondering about this study. I would prefer to be able to read any study that comes out without having to fight with a paywall...

But yeah, Psychology is an intangible science
