Romantic Jealousy: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract

Jealousy in a romantic relationship can have destructive consequences, such as ending relationships and leading to violent behaviors. Despite being heavily studied internationally for nearly three decades, it has not received sufficient attention in Turkish psychology literature. From this point of view, this article aims to address romantic jealousy from various perspectives, with the intention of providing ideas for future studies on the subject. The article discusses jealousy in a romantic relationship, taking various theoretical explanations into account to understand its triggers and forms of expression. It also includes the findings of various studies on jealousy in the international and Turkish literature. Finally, the article provides application and research suggestions based on the information obtained. According to the results of the reviewed studies, although jealousy is a universal emotion, there are intercultural differences in the experience of jealousy. As demonstrated by the reviewed studies, further research is necessary in both international literature and Türkiye to fully comprehend the dynamics of romantic jealousy and prevent its destructive consequences.

Romantik Kıskançlık: Kapsamlı Bir Derleme

Öz

Romantik kıskançlık, ilişkilerin sonlanması, şiddet davranışlarının ortaya çıkması gibi pek çok yıkıcı sonuca yol açabilmektedir. Buna karşın, uluslararası alanyazında yaklaşık otuz yıldır çalışılan romantik kıskançlığın Türkiye’deki psikoloji alayazınında yeterli ilgiyi görmediği anlaşılmaktadır. Buradan hareketle makalede, konuyla ilgili gerçekleştirilecek sonraki çalışmalara fikir vereceği düşüncesiyle romantik kıskançlığı çeşitli yönleriyle ele almak amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda makalede ilk olarak kıskançlık ve romantik kıskançlıktan söz edilmektedir. Ardından kıskançlığa dair çeşitli kuramsal açıklamalara, kıskançlığın tetikleyicilerine ve ifade biçimlerine yer verilmiştir. Bunları, uluslararası ve Türkiye alanyazınından kıskançlıkla ilgili yapılmış çalışma örnekleri izlemektedir. Son olarak, elde edilen bilgiler doğrultusunda bazı uygulama ve araştırma önerilerine yer verilmiştir. İncelenen çalışma bulgularına göre, evrensel bir duygu olmasına karşın kıskançlık deneyiminde kültürlerarası farklılıklar vardır. Ayrıca, makale kapsamında incelenen çalışmaların da gösterdiği gibi, romantik kıskançlığın dinamiklerinin ortaya konması, daha iyi anlaşılması ve yıkıcı sonuçlarının önüne geçilebilmesi için uluslararası alanyazında ve Türkiye’de daha fazla çalışmaya gereksinim vardır.
