Abstract: The present study selected young people in romantic relationships to explore the relationship between touch type, attachment, and the experience of jealous emotions. Fifty undergraduates were involved in Experiment 1. Touch type was divided into three types (i.e., face touch, lower back touch and no touch) to explore the relationship between touch type and jealousy. This study selected fear, anger, embarrassment, sexual arousal, sadness, and envy as the measures of jealous emotion. There were no significant differences in the six jealousy emotions under the three touching types. In Experiment 2, one hundred and thirteen participants were selected. Touch type was divided into four types, that is, face touch, lower back touch, no touch with near-distance and no touch with long-distance. Each participant completed Experiences in Close Relationship Inventory (ECR), which contained attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance to measure adult attachment. Results showed that: 1) under the no-touch condition with long-distance, anxiety attachment was positively related to sad, fear, envy, and anger; 2) under the condition of no touch with near-distance, attachment avoidance was negatively related to sad, envy and anger; 3) under the face touch condition, anxiety attachment was positively related to fear and sexual arousal. In general, the influence of attachment on jealousy is moderated by touch type.

摘要： 选取恋爱中的青年，探讨触摸类型、依恋和嫉妒的关系。实验1选取50名大学生，采用想象情境范式，探究触摸类型（分为“无触摸、脸部触摸和腰部触摸”三种条件）对嫉妒的影响。选择害怕、生气、尴尬、性唤起、悲伤和妒忌作为测量指标。结果显示，三种条件下嫉妒情绪无显著差异。实验2选取113名青年，将无触摸条件分为远距离和近距离两种，进一步探讨触摸类型、依恋和嫉妒的关系。依恋的测量选用亲密关系经验问卷，分为焦虑、回避两个维度。结果发现：（1）在远距离无触摸条件下，依恋焦虑和悲伤、害怕、妒忌、生气正相关；（2）近距离无触摸条件下，依恋回避和悲伤、妒忌、生气负相关；（3）脸部触摸条件下，依恋焦虑和害怕、性唤起正相关。总的来看，爱情依恋对嫉妒情绪的影响受到触摸类型的调节。
