The objective of the study was to predict the preparation for infidelity based on the early object relationships, the strength of the ego and the attachment style in students. The population included all married undergraduate students who studied at the Azad and Public universities of Qom in the 2014-2015 school year. The sample was 260 individuals by sampling of conglomerates. The study was descriptive-predictive and used multiple regression. The findings showed that object relationships and the capacity of ego strength for infidelity to weakness and attachment styles to infidelity predict at a significant level. Insecure attachment can be used to explain infidelity, and those with secure attachment tend to be less prone to infidelity in the propensity relationship.
