What’s Your Type? Relationship study Shows New Partners Are Often Similar To Old Ones 你的另一半是什么样的?情侣关系的研究表明,新伴侣往往与旧伴侣相似 What do you look for in a partner? In the dating world, it’s very common for singles to seek out someone similar to themselves. Now, a study from the University of Toronto shows that not only do people prefer romantic partners similar to themselves, but also a partner who is similar to their previous partners, too. 你想要什么样的伴侣?在约会的世界里,单身人士常会寻找与自己相似的人。现在,多伦多大学的一项研究表明,人们不仅喜欢找和自己相似的伴侣,也喜欢找和前任相似的伴侣。 The study suggests that people do indeed have a specific “type” when it comes to romance. After people get out of a bad relationship, it’s very common for them to decide that they need to date someone totally different. Turns out it may be very difficult for them to escape their “type.” 研究表明,人们在恋爱时确实会有特定的“类型”。当人们走出了一段糟糕的关系后,他们通常会决定要和一个完全不同的人约会。然而事实证明,他们可能很难摆脱自己喜欢的“那一款”。 “It’s common that when a relationship ends, people attribute the breakup to their ex-partner’s personality and decide they need to date a different type of person,” says lead author Yoobin Park, a PhD student in the Department of Psychology in the Faculty of Arts & Science at the University of Toronto, in a press release. “Our research suggests there’s a strong tendency to nevertheless continue to date a similar personality.” |
