Previous research, using factor analysis, derived seven dimensions of romantic love. We sought to address whether these dimensions differed in importance for women and men. Specifically, it was hypothesized that women would consider Marriage and Family, Traditional Romantic Behavior, Routine Activities, and Religion, and men would consider Sexual Behavior, Aberrant Sex, and Drugs as more romantic. These specific predictions were seen as consistent with the 'double standard' regarding sex, i.e., it should be more important for men, and with an earlier theory we developed in which it was argued that in addition to the 'double standard' for sex, security-related stimuli should be more important for women. The results were entirely consistent with our predictions.
以往的研究运用因素分析得出了浪漫爱情的七个维度。我们试图探讨这些维度对男性和女性而言在重要性上是否存在差异。具体而言，我们假设女性会认为婚姻与家庭、传统浪漫行为、日常活动以及宗教更为浪漫，而男性会认为性行为、异常性行为和毒品更为浪漫。这些具体预测被视为与关于性的“双重标准”相一致，即对男性而言应该更为重要，同时也与我们之前提出的一个理论相符，在该理论中我们认为，除了性方面的“双重标准”外，与安全感相关的刺激因素对女性应该更为重要。研究结果与我们的预测完全一致。
