Why are so many people staying single, and why has this number increased? The answer is not a simple one - it is complicated and multi-faceted. This was best captured in a study published in 2020, 'Singles' Reasons For Being Single', which sort to investigate singlehood further, finding evidence from an evolutionary perspective.
The research team (Menelaos Apostolou, Jiaqing and Gianluca Esposito) had three main hypotheses: (1) There were benefits to being single; (2) A mis-match problem; and (3) Constraints. In this video we break down what the scientists found to make their research more accessible.
