Zhongzeng,the adult attachment scale revised by Wu Weili and the FBI by Yang Hongjun were adopted,according to the data analysis,the characteristics and influencing factors of college students’ love

love preference scale includes three dimensions: social factors,physical factors and personality factors.The internal consistency reliability of the total score and each dimension was 0.933,0.847,0.866 and 0.922,respectively.The total score and retest reliability of each dimension were 0.942,0.863,0.884 and 0.923,respectively.Using MPLUS for confirmatory factor analysis,RMSEA=0.069,TLI=0.833,CFI=0.845,SRMR=0.063.The questionnaire was well structured and met psychometric standards.2、College students pay more attention to personality factors when making love choices(M=3.85).Social factors in love preference of college students are negatively correlated with openness of personality traits(r=-0.131**),self-affirmation of self-esteem(r=-0.108**)and closeness of attachment style(r=-0.098**).The social factors in college students’ love preference were positively correlated with self-love factors of self-esteem(r=0.092**)and anxiety factors of attachment style(r= 0.126**).The physical factors in college students’ love preference were negatively correlated with conscientiousness of personality traits(r=-0.098**),self-esteem(r=-0.084**),closeness factors in college students’ attachment style(r=-0.125**),and maternal encouragement factors in parental rearing style(r=-0.089**).The physical factors in college students’ love preference were positively correlated with the anxiety factors in college students’ attachment style(r=0.169**)and the father’s encouragement factors in their parenting style(r=0.081*).Personality factors in love preference of college students were positively correlated with extroversion(r=0.108**),self-esteem(r=0.190**),self-confidence(r=0.218**),anxiety factors in love style(r=0.064*),father care factors in family rearing style(r=0.194**),and mother care factors in family rearing style(r=0.233**).3、Regression analysis was conducted on the social factors of college students’ love preference.Anxiety in

grade,gender,educational background and love experience and college students’ love preference is RMSEA=0.055,GFI=0.944,AGFI=0.968,and CFI=0.987.The fitting indexes of the relationship model between the psychological factors including father encouragement,attachment style anxiety and dependency dimension and college students’ love preference were RMSEA=0.029,GFI=0.998,AGFI =0.987,and CFI=0.997.The fitting index belongs to the fitting range and the model structure is good.Analysis conclusion:1、The questionnaire on college students’ love preference has good reliability and
