Since the early 1990s, when Pruett-Jones (1992) revised and formally defined the concept of mate-choice copying, this type of nonindependent mate choice has been consistently studied and a handful of experimental, theoretical, and conceptual works has been published every year. The accumulated amount of experimental studies is now allowing researchers to use meta-analytical methods to characterize mate-choice copying both in humans (Gouda-Vossos et al. 2018) and in nonhuman animals (Jones and DuVal 2019; Davies et al. 2020). The literature search of the two meta-analyses in nonhuman animals was carried out 1 month apart, showing that many researchers in the field today consider this analysis necessary. And, because the two studies show enough methodological differences, both are useful and complementary. Additionally, Davies et al. (2020) consistently discuss their results with those of Jones and Duval (2019), guiding the reader toward the nuances of both studies that, otherwise, could be confusing.

将来进行配偶复制研究的两个研究途径：Davies等人的评论。

自1990年代初以来，当Pruett-Jones（1992）修改并正式定义伴侣选择复制的概念时，一直对这种非独立的伴侣选择进行了持续的研究，并且每年发表少量的实验，理论和概念研究。现在，实验研究的积累量使研究人员能够使用荟萃分析方法来表征人类（Gouda-Vossos等，2018）和非人类动物（Jones和DuVal，2019; Davies等，2020）的配偶选择复制。 。相隔1个月对非人类动物中的两种荟萃分析进行了文献检索，结果表明，当今该领域的许多研究人员认为这种分析是必要的。并且，由于两项研究显示出足够的方法论差异，因此两者都是有用和互补的。另外，Davies等。
