Hyphenating or keeping premarital surname for all U.S. destination brides marrying in Hawai’i in 2010 was highly, positively correlated with a state-level women’s income measure (r = .78, p < .000) and the analogous statistic for men (r = .64, p < .000), by bride’s state of residence. The women’s measure, only, remained significant when both predictors were used, together, to predict retention/hyphenation (i.e., under regression of both predictors). The interaction of state Gini coefficient and the women’s income measure was positively predictive in a regression including the interaction components as predictors (adjusted-R² = .66). None of several other predictors suggested by previous research or related to Gini index or income, testable using available, state-level data, were predictive (under regression) alongside the women’s income measure. The older the bride, from any jurisdiction, the more likely she is to hyphenate or keep her surname (χ² for linear trend = 1754.65, p < .000). These analyses comprise a nearly direct replication of previous work, adding novel analyses. Taken together, the original and replicated study may show evidence consistent with a general practice of women taking into account local economic factors, in marital surname decision-making.

2010年在夏威夷结婚的所有美国目的地新娘的假名或保留婚前姓氏与州级妇女的收入衡量指标（r = .78，p <.000）和男性的类似统计数据高度相关（r = .64，p <.000），由新娘的居住国决定。当两个预测变量一起用于预测保留/断字时（即，在两个预测变量的回归下），只有女性的测量才有意义。州际基尼系数和妇女收入测度之间的相互作用在回归分析中具有积极的预测作用，其中包括相互作用成分作为预测变量（已调整-R ² = .66）。以前的研究提出的其他几项与基尼指数或收入相关的预测指标（可使用可用的州级数据进行检验）均与妇女的收入测度无关（回归）。年长的新娘，从任何司法管辖区，就越有可能她是断字或保留她的姓（χ ²线性趋势= 1754.65，p <.000）。这些分析包括以前工作的几乎直接复制，并增加了新颖的分析。综上所述，原始研究和重复研究可能显示出与女性在婚姻姓氏决策中考虑当地经济因素的普遍做法一致的证据。
