Although online dating has become an important strategy in finding a romantic partner, academic research into the antecedents of online dating is still scarce. The aim of this study was to investigate (a) the demographic predictors of online dating and (b) the validity of two opposite hypotheses that explain users' tendency to use the Internet for online dating: the social compensation and the rich-get-richer hypotheses. We presented 367 single Dutch Internet users between 18 and 60 years old with an online questionnaire. We found that online dating was unrelated to income and educational level. Respondents between 30 and 50 years old were the most active online daters. In support of the rich-get-richer hypothesis, people low in dating anxiety were more active online daters than people high in dating anxiety.
尽管在线约会已成为寻找浪漫伴侣的一项重要策略，但针对在线约会的 antecedents 的学术研究仍然匮乏。本研究的目的是调查：（a）在线约会的人口统计学预测因素；（b）解释用户利用互联网进行在线约会倾向的两种相反假设的有效性：社会补偿假设和富者愈富假设。我们向 367 名年龄在 18 至 60 岁之间的荷兰单身互联网用户发放了一份在线问卷。我们发现，在线约会与收入和教育水平无关。30 至 50 岁的受访者是最活跃的在线约会者。为支持富者愈富假设，约会焦虑程度低的人比约会焦虑程度高的人更活跃于在线约会。
