Too picky to be picked? Minimum mate standards explain number of years spent single, in uncommitted and committed relationships
The attractive personality
People tend to prefer mates who are similar to themselves, yet also desire partners with specific characteristics. The relative importance of assortative and absolute preferences might differ for big five and political personality. We examined partner preferences at the facet level of the big five framework and compared them with preferences regarding a key political personality trait—social dominance orientation (SDO). We also assessed how avera…
Male Sex, Masculinization, Sexual Orientation, and Gynephilia Synergistically Predict Increased Sexual Jealousy
A robust, cross-cultural sex difference is typically found in jealousy responses to reveal emotional versus sexual infidelity. The only factor that seems to moderate this sex difference is sexual orientation, with male heterosexuals conspicuously reporting the greatest distress to sexual infidelity. Attempts at considering additional effects of psychological feminization and masculinization on jealousy responses have proven less reliable. In a sa…

Adolescent development of sexual misperception biases
Men overestimate women's sexual interest and women underestimate men's. Error Management Theory conceptualizes these sexual over- and underperception biases as adaptations. While the presence of these biases is well documented in adults, no previous research has explored their emergence and development during adolescence. We examined whether sexual over- and underperception biases were already present at age 16, whether they emerged later, and ho…
Risk factors of sexual violence perpetration and victimization among adolescents
Sexual violence among adolescents represents a significant problem in society. In this study, we aimed to examine risk factors for sexual violence perpetration in adolescent men and victimization in adolescent women among a community sample of Norwegian high school students. The participants (560 men and 751 women, aged between 16 and 21 years) responded to online questionnaires covering physical and non‐physical forms of sexual harassment and po…
Young adolescent boys' and girls' attitudes toward uncommitted sexual behaviors and the perception of interest in sexual exploration in opposite-gender relations
The aim of this study is to measure young adolescent boys' and girls' attitudes toward uncommitted sexual behaviors and gain insight into their perception of peers' sexual exploration interest in committed versus non-committed opposite-gender relations. We constructed a new 5-item measurement of young adolescents' attitudes toward uncommitted sexual behavior (sociosexuality) and report on the reliability and construct validity of the scale. Analy…
The Influence of Prototypical #MeToo Features on the Perception of Workplace Sexual Harassment Across Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation (LGBTQ +)
Introduction How we perceive social-sexual behavior, and to what extent we consider such behavior to be sexual harassment, is dependent on several situational factors. Prototypical #MeToo features (male actor and female target, higher status, repeated, private behavior, sexualized physical contact) have previously been shown to increase the degree to which social-sexual behavior is perceived as sexual harassment. The effect of those features need…
Affective Interpersonal Touch in Close Relationships
Interpersonal touch behavior differs across cultures, yet no study to date has systematically tested for cultural variation in affective touch, nor examined the factors that might account for this variability. Here, over 14,000 individuals from 45 countries were asked whether they embraced, stroked, kissed, or hugged their partner, friends, and youngest child during the week preceding the study. We then examined a range of hypothesized individual…
Perception of workplace social‐sexual behavior as sexual harassment post #MeToo in Scandinavia
In this study we examined how people perceive social‐sexual behavior of women and men, and how these perceptions were associated with beliefs about the outcomes of the #MeToo movement, sexism, traditional values, and gender equality. In addition, we examined the effect of having experienced sexual harassment on such perceptions. Analyses were performed on a Norwegian snowball social media sample covering 321 women and 168 men, aged 18–59 ( M = 33…
Confluence Model
Sex Differences in Mate Preferences Across 45 Countries
Considerable research has examined human mate preferences across cultures, finding universal sex differences in preferences for attractiveness and resources as well as sources of systematic cultural variation. Two competing perspectives—an evolutionary psychological perspective and a biosocial role perspective—offer alternative explanations for these findings. However, the original data on which each perspective relies are decades old, and the li…
Universality of the Triangular Theory of Love
The Triangular Theory of Love (measured with Sternberg's Triangular Love Scale - STLS) is a prominent theoretical concept in empirical research on love. To expand the culturally homogeneous body of previous psychometric research regarding the STLS, we conducted a large-scale cross-cultural study with the use of this scale. In total, we examined more than 11,000 respondents, but as a result of applied exclusion criteria, the final analyses were ba…

Revisiting judgment of strategic self-promotion and competitor derogation tactics
Competition for mates is a primary social psychological conflict. One may acquire a mate by promoting oneself by highlighting features that the opposite sex has evolved to desire in mates. One may also attack competitors, in an attempt to reduce their perceived mate value. The effectiveness judgment of 24 separate self-promotion and competitor derogation tactics were studied in two samples of Norwegian undergraduates ( n = 270 and n = 350) using …
