“…Most studies on the textual component in dating profiles focused on deceptive behavior and the profiles' accuracy (e.g., Toma and Hancock, 2012;Lo et al, 2013). Moreover, some studies have investigated the extent to which personality (Weidman et al, 2015) and other stable characteristics such as gender (Groom and Pennebaker, 2005; Van Berlo and Ranzini, 2018) and age (Davis and Fingerman, 2016) are expressed in textual self-descriptions.
