Ta članek raziskuje vzorce sklepanja partnerskih zvez vidika izobrazbe partnerjev. Osredotoča se na poveza
vo med spolno asimetrijo v izobraževanju in izobraževalno hipergamijo. Da bi ocenili, v kolikšni meri je

in Sloveniji, smo izračunali indeks izobrazbene prednosti žensk in indeks razširjenosti izobraževalne
hipergamije. Naši rezultati potrjujejo, da je rast izobrazbe povezana s povečanjem izobrazbene prednos
ti žensk, da je razmerje med izobrazbeno prednostjo žensk in izobrazbeno hipergamijo močno negativno
in da med Srbijo in Slovenijo ni bistvenih razlik v selektivnih vzorcih sklepanja partnerskih zvez.
