Item La apatía en las relaciones de pareja en jóvenes adultos y su correlación con infidelidades en Cali, Colombia en el año del 2024(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Peña Vazquez, Luisa Maria; Velez Almario, Heidy Daniela; Barreto Zorrilla, Camila Adriana; Almeida Salinas, Orlando (Director)Apathy is a factor that can influence couple dynamics, increasing emotional and sexual disconnection, which could increase the risk of infidelity. The aim of this research was to analyze the relationship between apathy and infidelity in young adults in dating relationships in Cali, Colombia, in 2024. An instrument validated by 3 expert judges was designed to evaluate the levels of apathy, the prevalence of infidelity, considering gender and its correlation. The instrument created obtained a cronbach's alpha of 0.88, indicating a high internal consistency. The results indicated that most of the participants showed low levels of apathy, suggesting commitment to the relationship. However, 40% of the 380 respondents acknowledged having been unfaithful, with a higher prevalence in the female gender at 22.8%. The p-value < 0.001 obtained in the different statistical methods (Pearson and Kendall's), shows that there is a positive but moderate relationship between the variables apathy and infidelity. In conclusion, the results of this study can guide preventive and therapeutic interventions focused on strengthening couple dynamics, in order to reduce apathetic attitudes, strengthen emotional connection and communication, with the aim of promoting healthy relationships in the population.
