At the end of this study, you will be able to see your self-esteem scores, including a self-esteem measure designed to tap into your subconscious attitude toward yourself. You will be able to compare your self-esteem scores to those of other people who participate in this study.

:: Online dating: Personality and the language we use. ::
  Nicola Fox Hamilton, Chris Fullwood, Grainne Kirwan
University of Wolverhampton
  This study is designed to examine whether personality traits are related to the use of particular language variables written in the “About Me” texts of online dating profiles, and to look at whether there are differences in the way this language is expressed by different cultures. The study will also examine the effect of gender, age, and sexual orientation on language correlated with personality traits. It is expected that usage of language variables in the profile texts will be found to correlate with personality traits, that there will be some differences in mean personality traits across the cultures that will be reflected in language differences.
