Pruner Gainesville SUN Correspondent Published: Monday, July 12, 2010 at 6:01 a.m. Last Modified: Sunday, July 11, 2010 at 11:12 p.m. Aren't you glad your tax dollars are being put to such good use? A new University of Florida study backs up what soap operas and Lifetime movies have been saying for the longest time - women are more concerned with finding "authenticity" in a partner than men. The study, which was published in the June issue of Personality and Individual Differences, is the summation of about two to three years of research and analysis of couples, mostly comprised of undergraduates. Couples in the study had to have been in an exclusive relationship for at least three months, although the average time span for the couples was 18 months. According to Gregory Webster, a psychology professor at UF who served as one of the researchers in the study, such results may be tied to undergraduate women having more mature relationship goals than males, although researchers couldn't place their finger on the exact reason behind the gender discrepancy. "On average, men tend to value good looks more so than women, whereas women tend to value more social status in men than men do in women," Webster said. Those who participated in the study were asked a round of questions on topics ranging from authenticity, intimacy and relationship satisfaction among other topics. Although Webster conceded that such abstract concepts can be difficult to quantify in a study, such concepts, he believes, share a direct correlation with the level of happiness in relationships. "I think the real take-home message of this study is to be faithful with your partner," he said. Steve Nixon, a senior civil engineering senior at UF, attributes the differences in modes of communication between the two sexes as the leading factor behind why women do not perceive intimacy from their male counterparts. Nixon's reasoning, he believes, is mostly tied to his experiences as he recently ended an 11-month relationship with his girlfriend. While his girlfriend perceived his behavior asa lack of caring, Nixon asserts that other factors, such as fear of looking sentimental in front of male friends along with a natural reluctance to romantically open up, can lead to such a misconception. But Jessica Keys, a UF advertising senior who has been in a relationship for more than four years, doesn't buy into the notion that men are programmed to be emotionally detached. "I wouldn't say it's harder for men to open up," she said. "I think it has to do more with their character and their past." In the case of Keys' relationship, she admitted that it did take a while, two years to be exact, for her boyfriend to "open up" emotionally. Since then, she said, it has made things a lot easier. "In a long-term relationship, you're on a more level playing field because you're more familiar with each other," she said. For Webster, differences in views on this matter are not only common but are to be expected. "Relationships are dynamic and malleable," he said. "There will always be people who are an exception to the rule." -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us<http://www.gatornetus> -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us
