A dating questionnaire was completed by 248 undergraduate college students who were either dating someone in an exclusive relationship or were not going steady. Responses to this questionnaire by students not going steady with someone indicated that 54 college-age men were more active at initiating and more successful at getting dates than the 70 women. However, between one-half and three-fourths of the college women reported having initiated dates with men. Both sexes experienced considerable anxiety while initiating a date which suggests a self-help system might be designed to ameliorate this problem.
248名本科大学生完成了一份约会调查问卷，这些学生要么正在与某人处于排他性恋爱关系中，要么没有固定恋爱对象。没有固定恋爱对象的学生对这份问卷的回答表明，54名大学适龄男性在主动发起约会方面比70名女性更积极，而且在获得约会机会方面也更成功。然而，有一半到四分之三的大学女生报告称曾主动与男性约会。两性在发起约会时都经历了相当大的焦虑，这表明可能需要设计一个自助系统来缓解这个问题。
