短期的配偶戦略を採る (チャラい) シングル男性は高いスマートフォンを購入する (誇示的な消費をする) という話。Mating strategyの3項目は日本では聞きにくいかなと思った。
“With how many different partners have you had sex within the past 12 months?”, “With how many different partners have you had sexual intercourse on one and only one occasion?”, and “With how many different partners have you had sexual intercourse without having an interest in a long- term committed relationship with this person?”. Answers are given on Likert-type scales (1 = zero to 5 = eight or more), with higher scores indicating a tendency towards casual, uncommitted sexual relationships (i.e., the tendency towards short-term mating).
