“…Although the boundaries are increasingly diffused with regard to the gender roles in conjugality, studies since the 1980s have highlighted differences between men and women in relation to infi delity, with gender differences being one of the major areas of study within the fi eld of infi delity (Glass & Wright, 1985;Greeley, 1994;Kemer, Bulgan, & Çetinkaya Yıldız, 2015). Recent studies have shown that men show a greater need for new sensations and, consequently, are more likely to engage in extra-marital behavior (Lalasz & Weigel, 2011).…”

This article aims to investigate the experience of infi delity in married or cohabiting men and women, considering the frequency, types of behaviors and reasons for infi delity. Participants of the study were 237 subjects, 106 men and 131 women, aged between 21 and 73 years (M=38; SD=11.22), who reported having been unfaithful to their current partner. Participants answered a sociodemographic and relationship questionnaire, the Infi delity Questionnaire and the Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale. The results show the similarity of the infi delity behaviors between men and women, although men were more frequently involved in sexual behaviors and women more in emotional behaviors. The study identifi ed dissatisfaction with the partner or the relationship as the main reason for infi delity for both men and women. These fi ndings highlight the importance of considering infi delity as a relational phenomenon, which reveals the importance of the relational approach in the treatment of couples who experience infi delity.Keywords: Infi delity, marriage, infi delity behavior, reasons for infi delity.

“…Dyadic trust has also been shown to be one of the most important elements for the development of well‐functioning and happy relationships (Kemer, Bulgan, & Çetinkaya, ; Regan, Kocan, & Whitlock, ; Wieselquist, ; Wieselquist, Rusbult, Foster, & Agnew, ). A recent study conducted by Kim and colleagues () found that when at least one romantic partner had low trust in his or her partner, both partners felt less close to each other.…”

Romantic relationship dissatisfaction has been cited as a primary reason for seeking mental health services (H. M. Foran, M. A. Whisman, & S. R. H. Beach, 2015). An increasing number of studies have revealed the importance of romantic attachment in understanding relationship satisfaction (M. Mikulincer & P. R. Shaver, 2016). This study aims to assess dyadic trust as a possible mediator of the relation between insecure romantic attachment and relationship satisfaction within a Canadian community sample of 199 heterosexual couples. Results revealed significant actor and partner effects. Specifically, male and female attachment avoidance, as well as male attachment anxiety, predicted lower dyadic trust, which in turn predicted lower relationship satisfaction. These results add to the current literature, suggesting important gender differences in the effects attachment has on overall relationship satisfaction.

“…They do not feel as being distinctive when they observe that others are also using similar brands. This tendency to observe what others possess is most common in collectivist cultures, the context of this study (Kemer et al, 2016;Ngo et al, 2016). This way we offer a new direction to shift in the consumer-brand emotions by positing a mediating role of brand jealousy.…”

“…When they notice others getting an equal social status, there are chances that the emotion of brand love might lead to a feeling of jealousy. This is exactly based on the logic of familial ties between love partners where a loss in identity results in emotional transitions (Kemer et al, 2016). Theoretically, when there is love, possessiveness also exists that might trigger emotional imbalance (Kim et al, 2018).…”

PurposeThere is extensive research where consumer emotions of brand love and brand hate are investigated. However, the studies where a transition in consumer-brand emotions is explored are scant. This paper aims to investigate the mediating effect of brand jealousy in the relationship between brand love and brand hate among luxury fashion brand consumers. Also how value expressiveness moderates the relationship between brand hate and negative word of mouth (NWOM) is examined.Design/methodology/approachThe study is based on a cross-sectional survey conducted among 273 luxury fashion consumers from Pakistan. The structural equation modeling (SEM) technique is employed to test the proposed hypotheses.FindingsAll the proposed hypotheses are supported. Brand jealousy mediates the relationship between brand love and brand hate. Furthermore, value expressiveness buffers the relationship between brand hate and NWOM.Practical implicationsThe luxury fashion marketers should focus on strengthening the symbolic identity of a luxury fashion brand via advocating its visual elements. Moreover, there is a need to advertise luxury fashion brands as exclusive to individual customers. Finally, some rewards can be offered to consumers to generate positive word of mouth (WOM) about luxury fashion brands.Originality/valueThe study of an emotional transition among luxury brand customers via a mediating role of brand jealousy is a unique theoretical contribution. Moreover, the moderating role of the value-expressiveness function examining the hate-to-NWOM path is also unique to this study.
