College Campus Mate Selection: A Quasi-Replication
Dr. Timothy O'Boyle, Ms Jennifer Dawson

Abstract
This college campus mate selection study is a quasi-replication of the original research performed by Reuben Hill and Harold Christensen (1939), and the 5 additional replication studies performed in virtually every decade since then.
