Abstract

Twenty-five individuals who had experienced infidelity in their marriage were interviewed to determine the relationship between the account, attribution, and outcome of the infidelity for the marriage. Denial, although typically considered an aggravating account, was often used initially by transgressors who were motivated to save their marriage. However, concessions proved to be the account most preferred by victims. Beyond a concession, relationship talk and remedial work appeared to largely impact whether the relationship was salvaged or terminated.
