Male and Female Jealousy, Still More Similar than Different: Reply to Sagarin (2005)Department of Psychology, University of California, San Diego Harris (2003b), reviewing evidence for the Jealousy as a Specific Innate Module (JSIM) theory, concluded that overall there is no support for innate sex differences in jealousy over sexual and emotional infidelity This article responds to Sagarin's challenges (this issue) by showing (a) JSIM proponents have not advocated Sagarin's attenuated version of JSIM; (b) studies using continuous measures do not support the original JSIM (the majorityfind no significant effects, and the effects that exist show varied patterns); (c) Sagarin's JSIM is untestable due to well-known scaling problems; (d) Sagarin's data do not significantly change the conclusions of Harris' review, particularly given 3 new adult studies that do not support JSIM; and (e) studies of real jealousy do not support JSIM.
