Research has shown that individuals who score lower on the trait of conscientiousness are more likely to cheat in relationships. This may be because they are less likely to adhere to internalized moral standards and are more impulsive in their actions. High levels of self-talk and anxiety may actually inhibit cheating behavior, and agreeableness may also make individuals less likely to engage in cheating behaviors out of concern for others' feelings.
