Abstrakt
Given the emergence of recent factor analytic models of dealbreakers in mate choice, we re-analyzed previously published data revealing 49 negative characteristics (Jonason et al., 2015). Six dealbreaker factors emerged in a sample of American college students (N = 285, 115 men).
We called these factors Gross, Addicted, Clingy, Promiscuous, Apathetic, and Unmotivated. Women, and those having more mate value and less interest in casual sex rated dealbreakers less desirable.
The most repelling factors in the long-term context were being apathetic and gross, and in the short-term context they were being gross and clingy. We recommend incorporating both desirable and undesirable features of mate preferences in future research.
