[edit]

This needs some serious work, i'd do it myself but wouldn't know where to start... besides i got work of my own to do.. i don't think even so much as the date for Murstein's study is right, and whats with all the A-level discussio forums coming up when i try googling murstein, is it only studied at A level? starting to think this is one shitty assed study.. steer clear.

actaully, i take back what i said about it needing work, it just needs a complete re-doing. shotgun not.

This is a very bad article that reads like it was copied from a high school/undergraduate textbook - the citations have the authors name and year but not the titles of the papers (as if the article writer copied it from a textbook but forgot to include the Bibliography), and the descriptions of the experiments are very vague,

-- Gordon Ross

Just did a minor change to the "computer dance" section near the top of the page. Article stated the study did not support the matching hypothesis when in fact it does.

How can the Matching Hypothesis be proposed by Murstein in 1970 and be tested by Walster in 1966? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Duckman142 (talkcontribs) 15:36, 26 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

This article looks like it has been copied from an A Level essay; it was probably written by a 17/18 year old student with minimal knowledge of the subject. Randomwellwisher 23:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Surely the first sentence of the article attributes the [physical] matching hypothesis to the *wrong* scholar. It should be attributed to Walster et al. (1966), as indeed is apparent from the rest of this Wikipedia article. 83.7.142.216 (talk) 07:22, 31 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

On the basis of my reading of the article, and others' comments, it seems that B-class is a very over-generous rating and I have changed it to start class. It will be good to see it expanded with time. Lord Spring Onion (talk) 11:41, 16 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
