Kinsey Institute Releases 15th Singles in America Survey

The Kinsey Institute has released the latest findings from its 15th edition of the Singles in America survey, the nation’s longest‑running annual study of single adults. The study surveyed more than 80,000 participants across the United States, generating one of the most extensive data sets available for examining how relationship patterns, population demographics, and social trends are evolving.

The survey captures a wide range of information, from dating preferences and relationship histories to attitudes toward marriage, cohabitation, and family planning. By aggregating responses from such a large, nationally representative sample, the Kinsey Institute provides researchers, policymakers, and the public with detailed insights into the lives of single people, including how factors such as age, gender, race, and socioeconomic status shape their experiences.

These new data reinforce the survey’s role as a key resource for understanding contemporary social dynamics. The Kinsey Institute will make the findings publicly available through its website, offering researchers and analysts access to the raw data and accompanying reports for further study of the shifting landscape of single life in America.
