Education is one such factor. Research suggests that higher levels of education can lead to better health and even greater longevity.

教育就是其中一个因素。研究表明，更高的教育水平可以带来更好的健康和更长的寿命。

But what about the education of your partner? New research seeks to answer this question.

但是你搭档的教育呢？新的研究试图回答这个问题。

Researchers use data from a longitudinal study. The data came from surveys first administered to high school seniors in 1957.

研究人员使用纵向研究的数据。这些数据来自1957年首次对高中高年级学生进行的调查。

The surveys ended in 2011. The team found that a person whose spouse had a higher level of education tended to report better health.

调查于2011年结束。研究小组发现，配偶受教育程度较高的人往往健康状况较好。

This remained the case when adjusting for other factors, such as participants , own education, social background and health status before and after marriage.

在对其他因素进行调整时，如参与者、自己的教育程度、社会背景和结婚前后的健康状况，情况也是如此。

The authors suggest that high levels of education provide shared social, intellectual, emotional and financial resources.

作者建议，高水平的教育提供共享的社会、智力、情感和财政资源。

These include things like higher levels of emotional intelligence, particular skills or knowledge, or more money.

这些包括更高水平的情商，特殊的技能或知识，或更多的金钱。

The researchers concede that an individual's own level of education is clearly important for their health, but they assert that individuals also can reap the benefits of their partner's education.

研究人员承认，一个人自身的教育水平显然对他们的健康很重要，但他们断言，个人也可以从伴侣的教育中获益。

It is noteworthy that the effects vary by gender. For women, health was more closely correlated to their spouse's education than for men.

值得注意的是，影响因性别而异。对妇女而言，健康与其配偶的教育比男子更密切相关。

The team suggests this may be related to the time period of the study.

研究小组认为，这可能与研究的时间有关。

Women in this sample had lower levels of education and lower occupational achievements than the men.
