Résumé
"This study correlates the national means of self-reports of sexual relations in stable couples and the meanpercentage of people with extramarital affairs with the climatic, socio-economic and cultural (religionand Hofstede´s dimensions) characteristics of the 25 countries to which the samples belongs. Lowuncertainty avoidance, low Catholicism and Protestantism, dominance of Buddhism and high powerdistance were associated with less sexual permissiveness. Sexual permissiveness was associated morewith the religious aspects of culture. Higher mean sexual frequency was associated with social development,individualism, low power distance and low dominance of Animism and Buddhism, to Catholicismand uncertainty avoidance, and cultural femininity. Results confirm the important role of socioeconomicdevelopment, raise questions on the negative view of Christianism and the positive view oforiental religions."
