Cheating using Tinder?

A research recently published in Personality and Individual Differences made people talk abuzz. It was a Psychological study about how often Tinder was used by college students to cheat on their partners.

“There has not been a great deal of research on whether Tinder is actually used to facilitate infidelity. Many people assume so but as we know, not all assumptions regarding relationships are accurate so it is important to conduct scientific research to test these lay people hypotheses,” Dana A. Weiser explained, an assistant professor at Texas Tech University.

The study involved 550 college students who had used or were using Tinder and the results are quite shocking.

One in five participants admitted that they are talking with a person on Tinder while in an ‘exclusive’ relationship.

“As many have assumed, Tinder is utilized to meet extradyadic partners. Moreover, variables that predict engaging in infidelity offline also predict the likelihood of engaging in infidelity via Tinder,” Weiser shared in a statement with PsyPost.
