Love Affair As a Factor of Academic Achievement of University Students According to Their Own Perception Love Affair as a Factor of Academic Achievement of University Students According to Their Own Perception Roksana Parvin* [email protected] Md. Mahmudul Hasan Sagar† [email protected] Abstract The importance of research on love affair and academic achievement is increasing day by day. The present study has been designed to investigate whether love affair and perception towards love affair has any significant impact on academic achievement of university students. To achieve this end, 100 participants were selected conveniently from the University of Dhaka. Among them 51 students had love affair relationship and 49 were single. One questionnaire was used in this study. The t-test, mean and standard deviation were employed to analyze the data. Findings illustrated that there is a significant difference in their obtained academic results (CGPA) between two groups of participants (Affair and Non-affair) but there is no difference in their expected academic results (CGPA). Findings further showed that students’ “perceived impact” (positive/negative) of love affair on academic achievement has significant impact on their academic achievement (CGPA). This study highlights the necessity of increasing awareness among the university students about the impact and perception of love affair on their academic achievement. Key Terms: Love affair, academic achievement, own perception. Introduction A love affair is a sexual or romantic relationship between two persons usually called couple. Love affairs have a strong emotional emphasis. They are emotionally intense and are usually sexually intimate. They may begin as "just talking" and "just having a good time together" and evolve into a powerful bond. When a romantic affair lacks both overt and covert sexual behaviors and yet exhibits intense or enduring emotional intimacy it may be * Lecturer, Department of Psychology, International University of Business Agriculture and Technology (IUBAT), Bangladesh † Lecturer, Department of Psychology, International University of Business Agriculture and Technology (IUBAT), Bangladesh Love Affair as a Factor of Academic Achievement of University Students According to Their Own Perception referred to as an emotional affair, platonic love, or a romantic friendship (Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary, 2000). One important concept related with love affair is human sexuality. Human sexuality is the capacity to have erotic experiences and responses. Human sexuality can also refer to the way someone is sexually attracted to another person, whether it is to the opposite sex, to the same sex or to either sex, to all gender identities, or not being attracted to anyone in a sexual manner. Human sexuality impacts personal, cultural, political, legal, and philosophical aspects of life. Different experts categorize love differently. In a classic book titled Colors of Love, Lee (1973) defined six varieties of relationship that might be leveled as love: a) Storge (life-long friends): the constructed type of storge love is characterized by rapport, self-revelation, interdependency, and mutual need fulfillment. b) Agapic (totally "thou" centered): an agapic lover is forgiving. This kind of love typically assumes that when the loved one causes pain to himself or herself or to someone else, that he or she is acting in ignorance, innocent error, or is the victim of forces not originating in the love-object’s personality. c) Mania (possessiveness and intense dependency): the ideal type of this lover is obsessed with his or her love object. A manic lover may be unable to sleep, eat, or even think logically around the loved one. The manic lover has peaks of excitement, but also depths of high depression. d) Pragma (logical-sensible): the ideal constructed type identified as pragma is that of a person who is unable to invest love in "unworthy" love objects. The pragmatic lover is keenly aware of the comparison level for alternatives that he or she has. Pragmatic lovers are inclined to look realistically their own assets, decide on their "market value" and set off to get the best possible "deal" in their partners. A pragmatic lover typically assists the loved one to fulfill his or her potentials; for example, such a lover might make sure the love object finishes school, asks for deserved promotions, gets the attention or that he or she "deserves" from physicians, stockbrokers, or employers. e) Ludus (self-centered game player): the ideal constructed type of a ludus lover is that of a person who ‘plays’ love affairs as he or she plays games or puzzles — to win, to get the greatest rewards for the least cost. FENI UNIVERSITY JOURNAL 142 Vol. 01, No. 01, August 2016, ISSN [2518-3869] Love Affair as a Factor of Academic Achievement of University Students According to Their Own Perception f) Eros (romantic): the constructed type of Eros is romantic love. Erotic lovers believe that love at first sight is possible if not mandatory. Falling in love is highly desirable. It is believed to produce an optimum state in the whole mind-body; persons in love feel 10 years younger, sleep well, wake up rested and refreshed. Impotent persons become potent; in-orgasmic persons become orgasmic. Every gland and organ is believed to be operating at maximum efficiency. Perception Perception is the interpretation of any experience or information in meaningful sense. People make decision on the basis of their own perception and it varies from person to person. Perception may be positive or negative and it has great influences on people’s behavior. It is commonly established that perception, self-efficacy, self-monitoring has significant effect on performance. So, in this study it needs to be assessed whether the participants’ own perception toward their love affair has any significant impact on their academic achievement or not. Love Affair and Academic Achievement Academic achievement refers to the performance outcomes that indicate the extent to which a person has accomplished specific goals that were the focus of activities in instructional environments, specifically in school, college, and university. School systems mostly define cognitive goals that either apply across multiple subject areas (e.g., critical thinking) or include the acquisition of knowledge and understanding in a specific intellectual domain (e.g., numeracy, literacy, science, history). Academic achievement as measured by the GPA (grade point average) or by standardized assessments designed for selection purpose such as the SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) determines whether a student will have the opportunity to continue his or her education (e.g., to attend a university). University life is one of the most memorable experiences in one's life. It represents a critical developmental period for students’ life. Social factors such as romantic relationships, organizations and clubs, and sports activities have been found to have effects on students' academic performance. Quatman, Sampson, Robinson and Watson (2001) examined the relationship between dating status and academic achievement, academic motivation, depression, and self-esteem and found that dating frequency has negative relationship with academic achievement. Chilman and Meyer (1963) surveyed academic performance of undergraduate married students as compared to the single undergraduates found that married couples received higher CGPA. Married couples were shown to have a goal minded approach to academics. Archival data was studied by Vockell and Asher (1972) in the early seventies that related to high school seniors dating frequency and their FENI UNIVERSITY JOURNAL 143 Vol. 01, No. 01, August 2016, ISSN [2518-3869] Love Affair as a Factor of Academic Achievement of University Students According to Their Own Perception scholastic aptitude, achievement, and school related activities. Future plans of the individuals positively affected their frequency of dating with respect to certain occupational goals. Kopfler (2003) studied the effects of romantic relationships on academic performance and found that romantic relationship has a negative effect on academic performance. Jiang (1972) examined a situation that is wide spread in colleges, namely college love affairs. He argued that it is positive for academic achievement if college students can correctly organize the relationship between college love and study. If handling well, then it may be beneficial and become a great power to college students leading them to success. Throughout the research findings it can be observed that in some studies love affair has a positive relationship with academic achievement but in contrasts some studies showed love affair has a negative relationship with academic achievement. This contradictory issues need to be addressed properly. Majority of the previous studies has been conducted in western societies. Study like love affair and academic achievement has rarely been conducted in collectivistic countries like Bangladesh. Since love affair is very common in Bangladeshi students, it is very essential to know the exact relationship between love affair and academic achievement in the context of Bangladeshi culture. In addition, it is also important to assess whether their own perception towards their love affair has any significant impact on their academic performance. Research Methodology Participants 100 students from the University of Dhaka were conveniently taken as the participants for this study. The participants of this study were categorized in two ways: affair (students engaged

  • Recovery from Infidelity
    Recovery from Infidelity Paul David, Ph.D. “The infidelity is not in the sex... but in the secrecy. It isn’t whom you lie with. It’s whom you lie to.” Frank Pittman Private Lies After the devastating discovery of infidelity, intense emotions and recurrent crises are the norm in intimate relationships. The good news is that the majority of couples cannot only survive infidelity, but as researcher John Gottman (2012) has found, many couples can recover and develop stronger relationships as a result of therapy. Infidelity is one of the primary reasons couples seek therapeutic help (Subotnik & Harris, 2005). A striking paradox is that while studies of married people indicate that the vast majority disapprove of infidelity, studies also show that that approximately 25% of wives and 50% of husbands had experienced extramarital intercourse (Glass, 2003). When emotional affairs and sexual intimacies without intercourse are included, the incidence of infidelity increases by approximately 15-20% for married people (Glass, 2003). Furthermore, when the higher levels of infidelity in cohabiting and other committed relationships are taken into consideration (Hertlein, Wetchler, & Piercy, 2005), a conservative estimate is that approximately 75% of these couples will break their agreement for sexual or emotional exclusivity during the lifetime of their relationship. Definitions Historically, infidelity was defined as violating an agreement of sexual exclusivity between partners married, cohabiting, or otherwise in a committed relationship (Hertlein, Wetchler, & Piercy, 2005). More recently, the definition of infidelity has expanded beyond the criterion of sexual intercourse to include such behaviors as cybersex, sexting, compulsive use of pornography, physical intimacy (such as kissing), and emotional intimacy with another person outside of the primary relationship.

Increasingly, researchers have noted that one facet that makes cross-sex friendships unique compared to other types of relationships (i.e. romantic love, same-sex friendships, familial relationships), is that there is the possibility and opportunity for a romantic or sexual relationship to manifest.

  • A Qualitative Study of the Role of Friendship in Late Adolescent and Young Adult Heterosexual Romantic Relationships
    A Qualitative Study of the Role of Friendship in Late Adolescent and Young Adult Heterosexual Romantic Relationships Billy Kidd Walden University, Minneapolis, Mn Magy Martin Walden University, Minneapolis, Mn Don Martina Youngstown State University, Youngstown, Ohio Abstract Friendship is considered one of the pillars of satisfying, long-term, romantic relationships and marriage. The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the role of friendship in heterosexual romantic relationships. Eight single participants, ages 18 to 29, were selected from two West Coast metropolitan areas in the United States to explore whether or not friendship facilitates future long term relationships. Participants reported that friendship helped establish economic independence, adult identity and improved communication skills. Participants also reported that the development and stability of long term relationships was tenuous and temporal in their lives. Late adolescents and young adults in our study believed that their selection of partners was very different than their parents and that the success of their long term relationships was enhanced by a strong friendship with their partner. Keywords: friendship; adolescence; romantic relationships Certain psychosocial factors have been found to document that adult romantic affiliations are defined differently by the younger generation. There has been a sizable shift in sociocultural forces such as technological innovations, a globalized job market, constant mobility, shifting gender roles as well as the deinstitutionalization of marriage that influence late adolescent and young urban adult romantic relationships (Arnett, 2004, Coontz, 2006; Le Bourdais & Lapierre-Adamcyk, 2004). This process creates uncertainty in close relationships so that the traditional timelines and milestones for romantic relationships are seen as outdated (Collins & van Dulmen, 2006; Reitzle, 2007).

  • Your Marriage Can Survive an Affair
    Your marriage can survive an affair: As previously published in the Stillwater Gazette Dear Dr. Bill, I cannot believe I am writing this letter. Two weeks ago, I discovered suspicious looking e-mails written by my wife to a man at her work. What I found were dozens and dozens of love letters, many containing very explicit sexual content. Yes, my wife had been having an affair with a guy at work for almost a year. She says she is very sorry and has ended the relationship. I am devastated, angry and afraid. I can’t imagine ever feeling secure in this relationship again. We have two beautiful children. Can we ever get past this? Signed: Devastated. Dear Devastated: My heart goes out to you and your wife. An affair is a tsunami to a marriage. The damage is incomprehensible. While it will be hard work, the good news is that it has been estimated that two-thirds of marriages survive affairs. My guess is that of those that survive, far too many eventually sweep the affair under the rug and never really deal with it. Try not to make that mistake. Trust and affection can be restored. I think you have two major tasks. One is recovering from the affects of the affair and two is taking a hard look at your marriage itself. Be honest. How strong was your marriage before this happened? I would like to be very clear on one point. The state of your marriage prior to the affair does not justify your wife’s decision to have an affair.

Lorraine Radtke, Department of Psychology ___________________________________________________ Dr. Hendrikus Stam, Department of Psychology ___________________________________________________ Dr. Susan Boon, Department of Psychology ___________________________________________________ Dr. Gillian Ranson, Department of Sociology _____________________ Date ii Abstract Twelve pairs of young adult friends were interviewed about friendship, and the transcripts analysed using discourse analysis. In their accounts, participants constructed versions of friendship (e.g., friends not having ulterior motives for their friendship) in many ways, while managing their own moral accountability. They also engaged in significant conversational work in order to construct friendship and romance as distinct relationship categories, addressing issues of sexual attraction and desire between friends, and partners. In doing so, they positioned themselves morally, drawing on the presumption of heterosexuality and the prescription of monogamy in romantic partnerships. At times (i.e., friend moments), participants performed their friendship by addressing each other directly and drawing on locally shared resources. They positioned themselves as insiders (i.e., friends), supported by the interviewer taking up a subject position as an outsider.
