This article focuses on the relationship between young adults’ cognitive abilities and individual partner preferences. We worked with the Preference NSZ 2017 data set, which contains data on partner preferences and the results of the National Comparative Secondary-School Exams of Czech high school graduates, and our analyses, using logistic regression, confirmed a tendency towards homophily on the level of cognitive abilities and university education. Young people with above-average results place more importance on agreement in political opinions, but do not regard the partner’s homemaking abilities or financial situation as too important. The results further show that partner preferences differ according to the education capital of the background family and according to preferred partnership arrangement. We also find significant differences in the partner preferences of men and women that reflect ideas about traditional gender roles. Women favour characteristics that relate to status, and men assign more importance to physical looks.

This article examines age homophily on a Czech online dating site using real user data. With a sample of 10 563 unique users and the aid of negative binomial regression, we test two hypotheses based on previous studies of online dating – namely, that men and women show different partner preferences with respect to age and that women in particular favour age homophily in their contacts. The model results support these hypotheses. Men are observed to prefer younger women, while women prefer men who are the same age or older than they are. Given that there are significantly fewer women on the dating site, they are the ones who choose, and the pairing result depends on whether they respond to a contact or not. The youngest women are contacted by men of all ages. Although men contact much younger women, they have a better chance of success with older women. Our conclusions are thus consistent with international research on homophily in the online environment and to some extent the results correspond to patterns of age homogamy in the Czech Republic. Unlike international research, however, the attractiveness of Czech men is found to decrease as they age.

People do not choose their partners randomly. Assortative mating can be either positive (homogamy), meaning people couple with self-similar partners, or negative (heterogamy, complementarity), meaning they couple with self-different partners. More than a hundred years of research have shown that in mate choice the principle of homogamy is significantly more prevalent. Being one of the most prominent principles of pairing, homogamy is studied across disciplines, varying from psychology, sociology, psychiatry, ethology, to anthropology. The aim of this narrative review is to comprehensively present and critically summarize the current state of knowledge in the field of positive assortative pairing, with the focus on empirical support (partner similarity in sociodemographic, psychological and physical characteristics), factors influencing homogamy (sexual orientation or culture) and the effects of homogamy on the relationship (satisfaction and stability of the relationship). Finally, the methodological pitfalls of the research are discussed and the directions for the future research are suggested. Due to the interdisciplinarity of the topic and the large number of papers investigating positive assortative pairing, we believe that this review will help readers to navigate themselves through the complex issue of homogamy.

Výběr partnera není náhodný. Nenáhodné (asortativní) párování může být pozitivní (homogamie), kdy lidé vytvářejí páry se soběpodobnými (self-similar) partnery, nebo negativní (heterogamie, komplementarita), kdy mají partneři charakteristiky soběodlišné (self-different). Více než sto let výzkumu ukázalo, že v párování se výrazně častěji uplatňuje princip homogamie. Jelikož se jedná o jeden z nejvýznamnějších principů párování, je homogamie dlouhodobě zkoumána napříč obory, od psychologie, sociologie, psychiatrie, etologie, po antropologii. Cílem této narativní přehledové studie je uceleně představit a kriticky shrnout současný stav poznání v oblasti pozitivního nenáhodného párování, se zaměřením na empirickou podporu (partnerská podobnost v socio-demografických, psychologických a fyzických charakteristikách), faktory ovlivňující homogamii (sexuální orientace či kultura) a dopady partnerské soběpodobnosti na partnerský vztah (spokojenost a stabilita vztahu). Závěrem jsou diskutována metodická úskalí výzkumu a navrženy směry, jimiž by se mohl budoucí výzkum ubírat. Vzhledem k interdiscipli­naritě tématu a obrovskému množství textů zabývajícím se pozitivním nenáhodným párováním věříme, že tento text napomůže čtenářům zorientovat se v komplexní problematice, jakou homogamie je.
