“…Accordingly, although individuals who engage in romantic relational aggression tend to report negative relationship behaviors including being more jealous, clingy, and frustrated and less trusting (Linder et al, 2002), the effects of relational victimization on victim psychosocial functioning appears to be most problematic only in the context of low relationship satisfaction. This is consistent with previous work demonstrating that relationship satisfaction is an important contextual variable to consider when examining links between intra- and interpersonal factors and reported alcohol problems (DiBello et al, 2015). …”

“…Conversely, individuals with depression may exhibit maladaptive patterns of behavior within relationships that lead to stress and maintain their symptoms of depression (Beach et al, 2008). Further, work by DiBello and colleagues (2015) suggests that relationship satisfaction is likely an important moderator when considering negative emotions and maladaptive alcohol use (DiBello, Rodriguez, Hadden, & Neighbors, 2015). Specifically, their findings suggest that cognitive jealousy, characterized by ruminative worry about potential infidelity in one’s relationship, mediated the association between negative relationship-related emotions and problematic alcohol use.…”

Objective The purpose of this study was to examine links across romantic partner relational victimization, depressive symptoms, and drinking problems during young adulthood. We were interested in evaluating depression as a mediator of the association between relational victimization by one’s romantic partner, drinking problems, and the conditional indirect effects of relationship satisfaction. Method 269 individuals aged 18 to 26 years (68% female, Mage = 22.78 years, SD = 4.70) participated in the study. They completed self-report measures online. Results Mediation results indicated that depression significantly mediated the association between relational victimization and alcohol-related problems. Furthermore, tests of conditional indirect effects suggest that depression mediated the association between romantic partner relational victimization and alcohol-related problems among those who were lower in relationship satisfaction, but not among those who were higher in relationship satisfaction. Conclusions Findings are discussed with attention to the developmental significance of romantic relationships during the transition to young adulthood. Specifically, the current findings add to the existing literature, which has suggested that both relationship aggression and depression are associated with problematic drinking.

“…High scores of jealousy, especially cognitive jealousy (elphinston & Noller, 2011) indicated minor adjustment, satisfaction and perception of quality in the relationship (Barelds & Barelds-Dijkstra, 2007;DiBello et al, 2015;Khanchandani & Durham, 2009). Mathes (1986) made two applications of the interpersonal Jealousy scale to the same sample of people with a period of seven years, and indicated that the effects of jealousy could be positive, in that couples were married and their love continued.…”

“…Furthermore, it has become increasingly clear that pathological jealousy is not a unitary phenomenon, and may occur in a continuum from within a 'normal range' through to delusional jealousy (Kingham and Gordon, 2004;Mullen, 1991). Jealousy may be a burdensome manifestation of several psychopathological conditions including but not limited to affective disorders (Kingham and Gordon, 2004), obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorders (Marazziti et al, 2003a;Parker and Barrett, 1997), alcohol use disorders (DiBello et al, 2015;Michael et al, 1995), psychotic disorders (Seeman, 1979;Soyka et al, 1991;Soyka and Schmidt, 2011), and also as a neuropsychiatric disturbance in neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Parkinson's disease) (Cipriani et al, 2012;Perugi et al, 2013).…”

exploratory study of the heterogeneity of the jealousy phenomenon and its associations with affective temperaments and psychopathological dimensions in a large Brazilian sample, Journal of Affective Disorders, http://dx.doi.org/10.1016Disorders, http://dx.doi.org/10. /j.jad.2017 This is a PDF file of an unedited manuscript that has been accepted for publication. As a service to our customers we are providing this early version of the manuscript. The manuscript will undergo copyediting, typesetting, and review of the resulting galley proof before it is published in its final citable form. Please note that during the production process errors may be discovered which could affect the content, and all legal disclaimers that apply to the journal pertain. METHODS: A Brazilian Portuguese version of the "Questionario della Gelosia" (QUEGE) was developed. We obtained data from an anonymous web-based research platform. Socio-demographic data was obtained and participants answered the QUEGE, the TEMPS-Rio de Janeiro, and the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R).RESULTS: 2042 participants (29 % men, 71% female, mean age + SD: 28.9 ± 8.8years), took part in this survey. Confirmatory factor analysis provided a five-factor model for the QUEGE with self-esteem, paranoia, interpersonal sensitivity, fear of being abandoned, and obsessive dimensions. The anxious, irritable, cyclothymic, and depressive temperaments were independently associated with jealousy dimensions, whereas the hyperthymic temperament was associated with lower scores on the selfesteem jealousy dimension (N= 2042, P < 0.001). Jealousy subtypes were dissimilarly associated with SCL-90R psychopathological dimensions, whereas the 'obsessive' jealousy dimension was not significantly associated with SCL-90R dimension scores.We found no independent influence of gender across any jealousy dimension.LIMITATIONS: A convenience web-based sample was employed. Cross-sectional design precludes the establishment of causal inferences.CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicate that a five-factor solution may provide the best-fit model for the QUEGE. Different jealousy subtypes were independently associated with affective temperaments and psychopathological dimensions. These associations reported herein should be confirmed in prospective studies.
