Coeds Not Always Happily 'Hilched' The average senior coed rated lower than the average happily married woman’ .in ’.tests based on a prediction -scale for marital. hap piness which were completed re cently by Helen A. Hoover under the direction of Dr. Robert C. Bemreuter, in charge of the .psy cho-educational clinic. “Girls in home economics'or the School of Education ihad -better •ratings than those in ’the School of the Liberal Arts,” Miss Hoover said, ‘tit seems reasonable to sup pose’that those’in home economics find greater satisfaction in activi ties connected with home and ■family institutions.” The study also revealed that the more money a .girl has earned, the less likely - she .is to compare fav orably with happily married wom en. “This may mean that girls who have worked have developed per-’ sonality tiafts of self-sufficiency and .independence,” said Miss Hoover, adding that certain edu-; cators have claimed that the hap piest, women are willing “to take .-subordinate rroles .and care not an-. noyed by advice from others.” The. amount of dating or ference for the ..company of boys has no bearing <on -the rating of the coeds, in comparison with the •happily married women. Actually ■those few-who expressed an equal preference for ’the companionship’ of girls and boys made Abetter scdres than those -who preferred ’to;associqte with boys. . Engaged girls who were ques-1 tioned had scores no better and mo worse than others. “A girl compares favorably or unfavorably with ihappily .married; women because of her traits and not ; because she is or is not in love' or engaged,” Miss Hoover ndeclar-i ed. However, -.engaged ; girls who,, met their fiances either at college or. at home ihad. higher scores than, those who had met them -.while away on' vacations. These findings bear out those of •educators and .who •have previously shown that more happy marriages result from meet ■ings under circumstances that, are “socially:approved” than from un conventional meetings. “Those who had publicly an nounced their 'engagement com pared more -.favorably rtban those who 'had not,” "Miss Hoover con cluded. I Girls who answered :the ques tion: about being in love were us ually either very much in love or .not -at all, .the results 'Showed.
