Editorial Standards & Corrections

Last updated: June 18, 2026

Cheating Psychology publishes educational content on infidelity psychology and betrayal recovery. We cite peer-reviewed and established clinical sources, label opinion clearly, and correct factual errors promptly.

What We Publish

Cheating Psychology is an independent educational publisher operated by Adam. We translate relationship psychology research—attachment theory, betrayal trauma literature, couples therapy frameworks—into accessible articles for people navigating infidelity. We are not a therapy practice, medical provider, or legal service.

Research & Writing Process

  • Source hierarchy: Peer-reviewed journals, academic books, and established clinical frameworks (e.g., Gottman Institute research, EFT, APA guidance) take priority over blogs or anonymous forums.
  • Educational framing: Articles describe patterns reported in research and clinical literature. They do not diagnose individuals or prescribe treatment.
  • Original synthesis: Each article adds structured analysis, tables, or frameworks—not copied summaries of other sites.
  • Date transparency: Published and last-updated dates appear on every article. Substantive revisions update the modified date.

What We Avoid

  • Anonymous or generic “Staff” bylines on YMYL topics
  • Implying licensed therapy where none is offered
  • Sensational or surveillance-oriented “catch a cheater” content
  • Guaranteed reconciliation formulas or unverified personality diagnoses

Corrections Policy

If you believe an article contains a factual error, outdated citation, or misleading framing:

  1. Email editor@cheatingpsychology.com with the page URL, the specific claim, and your source if available.
  2. We review within 5 business days. Verified errors are corrected on-page with an updated “Last updated” date.
  3. Material corrections may include a brief note at the bottom of the article describing what changed.
