Illustration showing three timelines of sexual behaviour (IMAGE)
Caption
Illustration shows a visual timeline shown to participants, representing a potential partner’s sexual history. Each timeline showed the same number of past partners (12), but with different patterns – some concentrated early in life, others spread evenly, and some decreasing over time. The study’s findings show that people were more willing to commit to someone whose encounters had become less frequent over time, as seen in timeline 3.
