- Abstract
Infidelity is an action that can threaten the safety and security of the family, so it needs to be prevented. However, existing data shows that individual attitudes towards infidelity have changed. In some countries, there has been a decline in attitudes that are more permissive and tolerant of infidelity. Research on attitudes towards infidelity is still very limited, even though this change in attitude can be an important indicator in predicting an individual’s predisposition towards infidelity. This study aims to see the role of grateful disposition and marital satisfaction on individual attitudes towards infidelity. This study is a cross-sectional with 101 married men and 360 married women selected in through purposive sampling. Attitude Towards Infidelity [ATIS], Gratitude Questionnaire [GQ-6] and the Couple Satisfaction Index [CSI] were administered to measure gratitude, marital satisfaction and attitudes towards infidelity. The results of data analysis using multiple regression methods show that interaction between grateful disposition, marital satisfaction, gender and past infidelity experience were able to significantly predict attitudes toward infidelity [R2 =.158, p <.001]. From these results, it can be concluded that attitudes toward infidelity can be predicted by demographic, interpersonal, and intrapersonal factors.
