Our methods of ensuring primary data will include our own analysis of other's experiments and surveys that we create, conduct, and qualify. In order to understand the theoretical context for the sociobiology of sexual jealousy, it would first be helpful to briefly explain the notion of sociobiology itself. We have chosen to examine the aspects of sexual jealousy from a sociobiological standpoint. This type of jealousy involves a perceived threat to an intimate, committed relationship between two individuals, most often sexually or physically involved.

The mother always knows who her children are, and has a naturally high level of parental confidence. As a result his natural tendencies lean toward aggression and displays of physical prowess. This is to attract desirable mates in order to perpetuate his genes, as well as to protect his mate from other males.
