Wilsonville, OR (PRLEAK) September 30, 2009 – Online Dating Magazine, a web based publication for online dating, recently launched a study to determine the level of success of online relationships. The idea is to find out if couples can have the same, if not better, quality of relationship as compared to traditional dating.

As per Joe Tracy, Publisher of Online Dating Magazine, the media has often challenged the claims by various online dating services that their methods produce better quality relationships for singles. Even Tracy stresses the need to conclude the ongoing debate through this study.

The study looks at different aspects of relationships that include heterosexual as well as homosexual relationships. This will help determine the difference in terms of satisfaction and stability in online as well as offline relationships.

Dr. James Houran, spokesperson, and feature columnist for Online Dating Magazine, heads the team, which according to him is a unique study that ignores the previous methods of research based on outdated questionnaires and theories. According to Dr. Houran, the objective behind the study is to determine what really defines a successful relationship, whatever the sexual orientation or how a couple meets. The team encourages the participation of those in a committed relationship. Participants need to respond to a series of questions about their relationship. The questionnaire has 130 items which takes about half an hour to complete. Those wishing to participate should follow this link http://lovestudy.yolasite.com
