An example of this is case that Wright (1994) described of a patient who arrived to mark the penis of the husband with penxs to confer the presence of this signal in the end of the day. The jealousy is of great interest of psychiatry, over all for the forensic one and also for psychology, from the moment that its manifestation is pathological and destroys the harmony of the relationship (Gillard, cited for Todd, Mackie & Dewhurst, 1971; Towers, Branch & Days, 1999; Rassol, 1996).
