性别选择理论为分析心理性别差异提供了有力的模型。这项研究考察了(A)从性选择理论预测的交配心理中的几个性别差异的测试，(B)关于交配心理中性别差异的广泛发展假说--通过交配心理与性取向的关系，以及(C)交配心理中性别差异的结构。测量交配心理各方面的量表被用来测量异性和同性恋SS的性别。不同组别之间的量表相关性结构相似。所有量表都产生了符合性别选择理论的性别差异。同性恋SS的得分总体上与同性异性SS的得分相近，尽管有几个量表与性取向显著相关。这些发现限制了有关性别差异起源的假设。
Sexual selection theory provides a powerful model for the analysis of psychological sex differences. This research examined (a) tests of several sex differences in mating psychology predicted from sexual selection theory, (b) broad developmental hypotheses about sex differences in mating psychology-through the relationship of mating psychology to sexual orientation, and (c) the structure of within-sex differences in mating psychology. Scales measuring aspects of mating psychology were administered to heterosexual and homosexual Ss of both sexes. The structure of scale intercorrelations was similar across groups. All scales yielded sex differences consistent with sexual selection theory. Homosexual Ss generally obtained scores similar to those of same-sex heterosexual Ss, though several scales were significantly related to sexual orientation. Findings constrain hypotheses concerning the origins of sex differences.
