Journal ArticleDOI
Continuity and change: assortative marriage and the consistency of personality in adulthood.
Avshalom Caspi,Ellen S. Herbener +1 more
TL;DR: Results point to homogamy as a basic norm in marriage and show that marriage to a similar other promotes consistency in the intraindividual organization of personality attributes across middle adulthood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shared experiences and the similarity of personalities: a longitudinal study of married couples.
TL;DR: Using the 20-year Kelly Longitudinal Study of couples, no support for the hypothesis that couples increasingly resemble each other with time was found and structural equation analyses suggest that the shared environmental experiences of couples play a significant role in maintaining these similarities over time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Avshalom Caspi,Ellen S. Herbener +1 more
TL;DR: The longitudinal evidence does not support the hypothesis that couples increasingly resemble each other with time, and spouse correlations most likely reflect initial assortment at marriage and not the convergence of phenotypes.
