To examine cultural, parental, and personal sources of young adults’ long-term romantic partner preferences, we had undergraduates (n = 2,071) and their parents (n = 1,851) in eight countries (Canada, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Malaysia, Philippines, the United States) rate or rank qualities they would want in the student’s partner. We introduce and use a method for separating preference patterns into normative patterns (shared across families and generations) and distinctive patterns (that characterized particular families or individuals). We found that youth everywhere wanted partners who aligned with both their own dispositions and their parents’ preferences, and these alignments reflected both culturally normative preferences and preferences distinctive to specific individuals or families. Students also predicted their parents’ responses: Their predictions were reasonably accurate reflections of what a typical parent prefers, but also reflected distinctive assumed agreement (i.e., they overestimated the degree to which their particular parents shared their particular preferences for qualities that diverged from culturally normative ideals). Culturally normative patterns exerted a stronger influence on actual or assumed parent–child agreement and accuracy in relatively collectivistic Southeast Asia (Philippines and Malaysia) than in relatively individualistic English-speaking North America (the United States and Canada). Conversely, preferences for partners who shared one’s distinctive personal dispositions were stronger in Western than Asian countries.

文化调节父母的规范性和独特性影响以及相似性对年轻人伴侣偏好的影响

为了检查年轻人长期浪漫伴侣偏好的文化、父母和个人来源,我们有来自八个国家(加拿大、印度、意大利、日本、墨西哥、马来西亚、菲律宾、美国)对他们希望学生伴侣的品质进行评分或排名。我们引入并使用一种方法将偏好模式分为规范模式(跨家庭和世代共享)和独特模式(表征特定家庭或个人)。我们发现,各地的青年都希望与自己的性格和父母的偏好一致的伴侣,而这些一致既反映了文化规范的偏好,也反映了特定个人或家庭所特有的偏好。学生们还预测了他们父母的反应:他们的预测是对典型父母偏好的合理准确反映,但也反映了独特的假设同意(即,他们高估了特定父母对偏离文化规范理想的品质的特定偏好的程度)。在相对集体主义的东南亚(菲律宾和马来西亚),文化规范模式对实际或假设的亲子协议和准确性的影响比在相对个人主义的说英语的北美(美国和加拿大)更大。相反,西方国家对具有独特个性的伴侣的偏好强于亚洲国家。但也反映了独特的假设同意(即,他们高估了他们特定的父母对偏离文化规范理想的品质的特殊偏好的程度)。在相对集体主义的东南亚(菲律宾和马来西亚),文化规范模式对实际或假设的亲子协议和准确性的影响比在相对个人主义的说英语的北美(美国和加拿大)更大。相反,西方国家对具有独特个性的伴侣的偏好强于亚洲国家。但也反映了独特的假设同意(即,他们高估了他们特定的父母对偏离文化规范理想的品质的特殊偏好的程度)。在相对集体主义的东南亚(菲律宾和马来西亚),文化规范模式对实际或假设的亲子协议和准确性的影响比在相对个人主义的说英语的北美(美国和加拿大)更大。相反,西方国家对具有独特个性的伴侣的偏好强于亚洲国家。在相对集体主义的东南亚(菲律宾和马来西亚),文化规范模式对实际或假设的亲子协议和准确性的影响比在相对个人主义的说英语的北美(美国和加拿大)更大。相反,西方国家对具有独特个性的伴侣的偏好强于亚洲国家。在相对集体主义的东南亚(菲律宾和马来西亚),文化规范模式对实际或假设的亲子协议和准确性的影响比在相对个人主义的说英语的北美(美国和加拿大)更大。相反,西方国家对具有独特个性的伴侣的偏好强于亚洲国家。
