Suppose that Chris and David are both happily married, but that Chris tends to look at other women—attractive single women who are potential alternative prospects—when he is out on the town at bars and clubs. Does this mean that Chris's marriage is less likely to last than David's?
a. Yes—research suggests that the more time people spend looking at alternative prospects, the more likely it is that their relationship is doomed. b. No—the degree to which people look at alternative prospects does not appear to be related to relationship success. c. No—in fact, people who look at alternatives at least occasionally are MORE likely to have successful relationships than people who don't. d. It depends on how Chris is evaluating other women; his marriage is only less likely to last than David's if he is consciously comparing the other women to his wife.
