  3. Evolution & Mating • Research based on evolution… • Female vs. Male preferences in heterosexual relationships: • Results of FSU study of 3 direct requests of men/women? • “Would you go out with me tonight?” • “Would you come over to my apartment tonight?” • “Would you go to bed with me tonight?” • Gender differences in responses to the 3 requests?

  4. Criticisms of the evolutionary approach – • Access to power? • More similarities than differences? • Self-report data?

  5. First Encounters: Online Meeting Examples of each of these 3 types?

  6. Initiating Relationships: Internet (I) vs. Face-to-Face (F) • Levinger’s model of relationship development: • 1) awareness of other – • same or different for I vs. F? • 2) surface contact – • same or different for I vs. F? • 3) mutuality – • same or different for I vs. F?

  7. Factors leading to attraction online: • Person (P) factors – do people who seek partners online differ? • Other/Partner (O) factors – • PxO interaction – how do sites create ‘matches’? • Gender differences in matching hypothesis for online relationships?
