在57对约会或已婚夫妇中调查了体重指数（BMI; kg/m2）与关系质量和其他伴侣/关系感知之间的关联。体重较重的女性拥有较低质量的关系，他们预测更有可能结束。他们与不太理想的男人合作，认为他们的伴侣会认为他们不那么热情/值得信赖。体重较重的女性被他们的男性伴侣判定为吸引力/活力较低，并且与他们的伴侣的吸引力理想不匹配。相比之下，男性的BMI通常与关系功能无关。这些发现指出了可能导致女性关系困难加重的潜在机制。
Associations between body mass index (BMI; kg/m2) and relationship quality and other partner/relationship perceptions were investigated in 57 dating or married couples. Heavier women had lower quality relationships, which they predicted were more likely to end. They partnered with less desirable men and thought their partners would rate them as less warm/trustworthy. Heavier women were judged by their male partners as lower in attractiveness/vitality and as poorer matches to their partners' attractiveness ideals. In contrast, men's BMI was generally not associated with relationship functioning. These findings point to the potential mechanisms that may contribute to heavier women's relationship difficulties.
