Özet

This study aimed to examine the relationships between five-factor personality traits and mate selection strategies. The participants consisted of 377 university students, aged 19-29, who had never been married. The data were collected by means of an Adjective Based Personality Test and an Inventory of Mate Selection Strategies. Canonical correlation technique was employed for data analysis. As a result of this, it was decided to evaluate the first canonical function. This evaluation revealed that individuals with a high level of conscientiousness and a low level of neuroticism and openness to experience attached importance to virginity, as well as to religious and political similarities. Thus, it was found that there were significant relationships between five-factor personality traits and mate selection strategies.
