Using the data collected about their age, education, nationality and previous relationships, they found the factors that many of those who broke up had in common.
研究人員通過分析所收集的受訪者的年齡、受教育程度、國籍和婚史資料,發(fā)現(xiàn)了那些分手的人之間存在的一些共同點。
Psychologists then analysed the importance of each factor to build up profiles of an ideal marriage and a nightmare couple. With age, they found that if the wife is five or more years older than her husband, they are more than three times as likely to divorce than if they were the same age.
之后,心理學(xué)家對每個因素的重要性進行了分析,然后構(gòu)造出理想夫妻和“噩夢”夫妻的大致模式。研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn),從年齡來看,如果妻子比丈夫大五歲或更多,他們離婚的幾率要比同齡夫妻大三倍。
