| Abstract: |
In this thesis, jealousy and relationship satisfaction in online and offline friendships were examined. I hypothesized that participants in online friendships would report higher jealousy than participants in offline relationships. I also hypothesized that participants in offline friendships would have higher relationship satisfaction than participants in online friendships. Participants were 81 people, 16 male and 65 female. Participants were randomly assigned to report on their online friendships or offline friendships. They then completed an online survey consisting of a relationship satisfaction measure and the Multidimensional Jealousy scale. The Multidimensional Jealousy scale consists of three subscales; cognitive jealousy, emotional jealousy, and behavioral jealousy. The Multidimensional Jealousy scale was modified to measure friendship jealousy and online behavioral jealousy. Participants in online relationships reported higher levels of overall jealousy, cognitive jealousy, and behavioral jealousy, but not emotional jealousy. This is odd considering that overall jealousy was significantly correlated with all three jealousy subscales. Participants in offline friendships reported significantly higher levels of relationship satisfaction than participants in online friendships |
