Initiating Sexual Behaviors with Online Dating Partners: Stereotypical Gender Norms, Intimate Personal Data, and Romantic Compatibility Initiating Sexual Behaviors with Online Dating Partners: Stereotypical Gender Norms, Intimate Personal Data, and Romantic Compatibility


Summary/Abstract: Despite the relevance of initiating sexual behaviors with online dating partners, only limited research has been conducted on this topic. Using and replicating data from Pew Research Center, we performed analyses and made estimates regarding % of U.S. adults in each group who have used online dating sites, % of teens with current or prior romantic experience who have broken up with someone or been broken up with in certain ways, and % of boys/girls who would usually take a particular approach to ask someone out on a date. The results of a study based on data collected from 4,200 respondents provide support for our research model. Using the structural equation modeling and employing the probability sampling technique, we gathered and analyzed data through a self-administrated questionnaire.
