SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | The Role of Assortative Mating in Marital Infidelity: Insights from China
DESCRIPTION:Attend in person or via Zoom. Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/73Db9.\n\nExisting studies on assortative mating in China have primarily focused on its determinants as well as consequences regarding marital stability and quality. However\, little is known about its effect on marital infidelity. Are those with similar characteristics more likely to remain faithful in the marriage? Are those who bring “more” to the marriage more prone to infidelity because they have the upper hand? Or\, are those who are more dependent on the marriage more likely to engage in infidelity as a compensatory act? Using newly available data from the Chinese Private Life Survey\, we examine the association between marital infidelity and patterns of assortative mating in the context of China\, where educational homogamy becomes the norm but income hypergamy still prevails (men out-earning women). Our findings show a complex interplay of resources\, status\, and dependency in a highly gendered environment. We find that marriages in which the wife is more educated than the husband exhibit a higher likelihood of experiencing extramarital affairs than those marriages in which the husband and wife have similar education levels. Contrary to our expectation\, marriages in which the husband out-earns the wife are more likely to remain faithful than marriages where incomes are equal. Results also show that there are some trade-offs between education and income. For example\, among all types of educational and income pairings of the spouses\, marriages in which the wife is more educated but makes less money than the husband are the most likely to experience extramarital affairs. It is worth noting that the observed patterns are mainly driven by the subsample of men\, who on average are 1.7 times more likely to be unfaithful than women. Our study demonstrates the limited utility of classic perspectives on marital exchange and underscores the evolving and asymmetric nature of gender power dynamics in marriages in a society with a longstanding patriarchal tradition juxtaposed with changing gender relations.\n   \n   Feinian Chen is a Professor of Sociology at Johns Hopkins University and Director for the Hopkins Population Center.
