  科学美国人60秒英文文本

  The tabloids love a good celebrity romance. But sodo scientists. One has even used movie stars asmodels for understanding why people tend to marrypartners with similar levels of education. The star-studded study appears in the Journal of HumanCapital. [Gustaf Bruze, "Marriage Choices of MovieStars: Does Spouse’s Education Matter?"]

  There are any number of reasons why individualsmight wed their academic equals. The simplest being that they actually meet each other inschool. It could also be that people with similar educational backgrounds wind up side by side inthe workplace. Or maybe we’re more comfortable with someone whose earning potential is inour ballpark.

  To sort through the possibilities, Gustaf Bruze, an economist in Denmark, looked to the BigScreen. Thespians, he found, also tend to marry people with the same level of learning. So TomCruise and Katie Holmes each have formal education equivalent to completion of high school.

  Now, actors don’t usually meet their partners in school, and they’re not cast in movies based ontheir diplomas. Nor does their education level correlate with their box office earnings. So itcan’t be about happenstance or about finance. Maybe it’s just that people with the same sort ofeducation like the same movies—in this case, the ones they’re in.
