Abstract In many species, male secondary sexual traits have evolved via female choice as they confer indirect (i.e. genetic) benefits or direct such enhanced fertility survival. humans, the role of men's characteristically masculine androgen‐dependent facial in determining attractiveness has presented an enduring paradox studies human mate preferences. Male‐typical features a pronounced brow ridge and more robust jawline may signal underlying health, whereas beards age social dominance....
Abstract Uncertainty tolerance, individuals' perceptions/responses to uncertain stimuli, is increasingly recognized as critical effective healthcare practice. While the Covid‐19 pandemic generated collective uncertainty, healthcare‐related uncertainty omnipresent. Correspondingly, there increasing focus on tolerance a health professional graduate “competency,” and concomitant interest in identifying pedagogy fostering learners' tolerance. Despite these calls, practical guidelines for...
Desirable characteristics of ‘opposite sex others’, such as physical attractiveness and economic status, can influence how individuals are judged. However, whether modifying status influences ratings differently in women men remains to be determined. In two studies, were quantified for male female targets that presented under various social contexts. Study 1 assessed judgments (n = 1359) images nine different sized groups containing only opposite-sex others (i.e. group size). While we found...
Abstract Uncertainty is a feature of healthcare practice. In recognition this, multiple health profession governing bodies identify uncertainty tolerance as graduate attribute and evaluate within new cohorts. While it clear that development for learners valued, gaps remain practically addressing this curricula. Guiding frameworks practical approaches supporting in remains sparse, particularly outside medicine certain geographical locations. As increasingly recognised being, at least part,...
Human mate choice research often concerns sex differences in the importance of traits such as physical attractiveness and social status. A growing number studies indicate that cues to context, including other people who appear stimulus photographs, can alter individual's attractiveness. Fewer studies, however, consider judgements than attractiveness, wealth. Here we manipulate presence/absence photographs target models, test effects on judgments both earnings (a proxy for status)....
Sex ratios influence intrasexual competition with consequences for a variety of behaviours, including social attitudes. Cues masculinity, such as beards, are also known to respond the local intensity competition. Whether different cues interact or have additive effects on behaviour remains unknown. Here we test whether attitudes concerning promiscuity and self-reported mate value influenced by relative numbers women men, and/or frequency bearded men. We primed subjects (men= 540, women= 522)...
