The obtained data were analyzed using regression and structural equation modeling. Results: Executive functions, including inhibition, task switching, working memory, and commitment, directly affect the extramarital relationship through the mediation of commitment. The model has a suitable fit (average root mean square second approximation error; 0.051, goodness of fit index; 0.942, normed fit index; 0.926, and comparative fit index; 0.942). Conclusion: Executive functions (including inhibition, task switching, working memory), and marital commitment play an important role in extramarital relationships; therefore, they should be taken into consideration. %> http://jpcp.uswr.ac.ir/article-1-634-en.pdf %P 147-157 %& 147 %! %9 Research %L A-10-635-1 %+ Department of Psychology, Faculty of Literature and Humanities, Persian Gulf University, Bushehr, Iran. %G eng %@ 2423-5822 %[ 2019
