Assortative preferences for the heights of potential female mates (top row) and male mates (bottom row) in all four countries. The heights of raters positively predict how much taller-than-average or shorter-than-average they prefer their mates to be, with similar effects observed across countries. Men’s preferences for women’s heights are relatively stronger for a long-term (solid lines and green coloration) than short-term (dashed lines and orange coloration) relationship context. 95% confidence intervals are represented by shaded regions surrounding each regression line.
