Correlates of love in intimate relationships across gender, sex of partner, marital status, and cultures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Correlates of love were analyzed using data from an on-going cross-cultural study of intimate relationships in multiple languages at http://web.whittier.edu/chill/ir. The online questionnaire asked about one's social background, attitudes and values, current intimate relationship (if any), and well-being. Participants were recruited in North America (United States, Canada, and Mexico), South America (Argentina and Colombia), and Europe (Spain, Italy, and Romania). Others responded from 41 additional countries. Among the 3048 respondents, 71% were women, and 73% were in a relationship (74% opposite-sex and 26% same-sex, including 11% opposite-sex marriages and 9% same-sex marriages). Love was measured using a single-factor scale with 11 items from Rubin (1973), Sternberg (1986), and Lee (1973). For both sexes, love was positively correlated with perceptions of similarity, approval by parents and others, ratings of the partner's personal characteristics, frequency of communication, expressions of affection, and sexual satisfaction. These correlates were similar for both opposite-sex and same-sex unmarried samples, and for both opposite-sex and same-sex married samples, which were recruited in the US. They were also similar for unmarried opposite-sex samples that were recruited in seven other countries. In sum, correlates of love were similar across gender, sex of partner, marital status, and cultures of these countries.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
