性格可以预测人类的离婚率,但性格特征如何影响野生动物的离婚仍然是个未知数。在雄性倾向的流浪信天翁(Diomedea exulans)种群中,我们发现性格可以预测离婚;害羞的雄性比大胆的雄性表现出更高的离婚率,但在雌性中没有发现这种关系。我们认为,离婚可能是由于男性竞争对手的入侵和害羞的男性离婚更频繁,因为他们避免领土侵略,而女性更容易获得配偶,无论他们的个性。因此,人格可能对社会关系的动态有重要的影响。
Personality predicts divorce rates in humans, yet how personality traits affect divorce in wild animals remains largely unknown. In a male-skewed population of wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans), we showed that personality predicts divorce; shyer males exhibited higher divorce rates than bolder males but no such relationship was found in females. We propose that divorce may be caused by the intrusion of male competitors and shyer males divorce more often because of their avoidance of territorial aggression, while females have easier access to mates regardless of their personality. Thus, personality may have important implications for the dynamics of social relationships.
