Hello there.

Im writing a paper for my Psychology of Sexuality class, about Extradyadic sex.

Ive found 2 sources, but I need at least 2 more.

Im looking for psychology journals.

 

I have the ability to search through a database of journals, but I cant seem to find articles Im looking for. and when I do type in "Extradyadic" or "Extramarital"

I'll get a few things that arent related to what Im going to write about.

 

Im writing about why women and men may become involved in extramarital affairs.

 

I need some search ideas.

 

Also, if I could find some information on "Key Parties" or a "Key Party" that would be good too - because Im going to mention that as well.

 

thanks

Hi Mag,

 

You might try some of the following terms:

 

Infidelity

Cuckold (and cuckoldry)

Non delicto flagrante

Adultery

 

 

As for a source, my mind went immediately to the work of David Buss, an evolutionary psychologist at the University of Texas. Here are a list of references from google scholar for the search term "David Buss adultery."

 

http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=david+buss+adultery&hl=en&lr=

 

 

Good luck on the paper. :)

 

 

 

 

EDIT: This is the same search using the name of one of my other professors... Cindy Meston:

 

http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=cindy+meston+infidelity&hl=en&lr=

 

 

:D

You could also try polygamy/polygany/polyandry and anthropological terms. *shrugs*

Hello, thank you, I'll use those terms. I found "infidelity" as well because I found an article with that name in the title, lol.

 

and you reminded me about google scholar, thanks for that too!

Awesome! How did I forget those? :doh:

 

 

:D

 

 

 

Have fun!

Well, I found all the sources I needed.
