Explaining Jealousy

Article Category: Advice

Author Name: Micheal Bradley

Everyone around the world who hasn't been living under a rock has experienced the emotion called jealousy. It is an emotion that is a mixture of fretfulness, irritation, and lack of confidence in one's self.
What causes this emotion to occur? What triggers the green eyed monster to be unleashed? According to the field of Sociology (which, roughly speaking, is the study of human behavior in the society), jealousy is influenced by cultural as well as social factors. It depends on where you are, how you were raised, the people surrounding you, and many other influences that cause you to feel this emotion, how you express it and your attitude towards it. Margaret Mead, an anthropologist, has studied jealousy in terms of what triggers it and it indeed varies, depending on a people's culture. Through her studies, she said that there are societies with a cultural practice of a man who willingly offers his wife or daughter to someone else for sexual purposes. This is practice doesn't in the least cause jealousy; rather, the man feels that he is enhancing his prestige. Of course in other societies this is considered a taboo and evokes the emotion of jealousy. Another study showed by Stearns was that jealousy was almost inexistent in eighteenth century America, most likely because the marriages back then were arranged, and extramarital affairs were practiced more indiscreetly. After a while courtship started and people were able to find their own partners before they get married so the social phenomenon of jealousy began to thrive. Around the 1960s up to the 1970s, the flower power started to flourish and because of the believers in free love, jealousy, significantly that which is sexual, was viewed to be ridiculous and overrated.
Basically, that feeling of jealousy that has been evoked is caused mainly because of the environment that one is in.
According to the study of Psychology (the study of the mind), it is an involvement of an "emotional episode" that comprises a multifaceted "narrative" triggered by the jealous person's current condition, an attempt at self control, and then the succeeding behavior as a reaction followed by a resolution according to the psychologist Gerrod Parrot. The foundation of this "narrative" is comprised of experiences, feelings, personal point of view, memories, as well as the imagination and presumptions of the jealous person. The society and the culture that the person has been raised in also significantly affect the emotion.
It is possible that you, the reader, is more familiar with the jealousy that presides in an intimate relationship. Jealousy can either tear the relationship apart or evoke more sexual passion between those involved. In certain societies, the destructive kind of jealousy may be that which is accusatory and smothering. It is best to find out what the root cause is when it comes to this jealousy before it ultimately destroys the relationship. If the person who feels jealous has had a history of being cheated on then it is possible that the fear of this happening again has triggered the emotion. This is part of the experience factor. The jealous person's need for power and control may also be another cause. These are but examples as to how one can be able to understand the emotion of jealousy. It is best to stand back and analyze the situation spherically (such as sociologically and psychologically) before taking action.
