Although widely cited as strong evidence that sexual selection has shaped human facial-attractiveness judgments, findings suggesting women’s preferences for masculine characteristics in men’s faces are related to hormonal status equivocal and controversial. Consequently, we conducted the largest-ever longitudinal study of correlates facial masculinity ( N = 584). Analyses showed no compelling were changes salivary steroid hormone levels. Furthermore, both within-subjects between-subjects...

The benefits of minimizing the costs engaging in violent conflict are thought to have shaped adaptations for rapid assessment others' capacity inflict physical harm. Although studies suggested that men's faces and voices both contain information about their threat potential, one recent study a more valid cue potential than are. Consequently, current investigated interrelationships among composite measure actual (derived from measures upper-body strength, height, weight) these perceived...
Objectives Although many theories of human facial attractiveness propose positive correlations between and measures actual health, evidence for such is somewhat mixed. Here we sought to replicate a recent study reporting that women's independently related both their adiposity cortisol. Methods Ninety‐six women provided saliva samples, which were analyzed cortisol level, height weight, used calculate body mass index (BMI). A digital face image each woman was also taken under standardized...
Social judgments of faces made by Western participants are thought to be underpinned two dimensions: valence and dominance. Because some research suggests that Eastern process differently, the two-dimensional model face evaluation may not necessarily apply participants. Here we used a data-driven approach investigate components underlying social Chinese Analyses showed partly general approachability dimension similar previously found underpin participants’ evaluations White faces. However,...
Abstract Due to an overwhelming amount of student-generated forum posts in small private online courses (SPOCs), students and instructors find it time-consuming challenging effectively navigate track valuable information, such as the evolution topics, emotional behavioral changes relation topics. For solving this problem, study analyzed plenty discussion using improved dynamic topic model, Time Information-Emotion Behavior Model (TI-EBTM). Time, emotion, behavior characteristics were...
Although some researchers have suggested that the interaction between cortisol and testosterone predicts ratings of men's facial attractiveness, evidence for this pattern results is equivocal. Consequently, current study tested a correlation attractiveness their levels. We also corresponding relationships health dominance (perceived traits are correlated with in men). found no either or were testosterone. Some analyses levels may predict dominance, however, being more closely related to...
Abstract Objectives Recent research on the signal value of masculine physical characteristics in men has focused possibility that such are valid cues strength. However, evidence sexually dimorphic vocal correlated with strength is equivocal. Consequently, we undertook a further test for possible relationships between and characteristics. Methods We tested putative White UK ( N = 115) Chinese 106) participants' handgrip (a widely used proxy general upper‐body strength) five acoustic...
Previous research has shown strong cross-cultural agreement in facial attractiveness judgments. However, these studies all used a theory-driven approach which responses to specific characteristics are compared between cultures. This is constrained by the predictions that can be derived from existing theories and therefore bias impressions of extent face preferences. We directly addressed this problem using data-driven, rather than theory-driven, compare judgments made Chinese-born...
It is well established that men report greater jealousy when imagining scenarios in which their romantic partner interacts with displaying masculine physical characteristics. However, few studies have tested for corresponding effects of sexually dimorphic characteristics on women's or these non-Western samples. Thus, we investigated the experimentally manipulated face-shape cues Chinese and White UK perceptions. women both reported interacted more feminine women. Both groups showed large...
Facial attractiveness refers to a positive and joyful emotional experience induced by the face of target person extent which other people are driven be close their wishes. Since 1970s, has gradually emerged in western psychological research, but most studies were confined heterosexuals. More recently, some scholars have pointed out that sexual orientation may affect judgment facial individuals. Based on previous literature, this study proposed explore different individuals with orientations...

Stone cell content key determinant negatively affecting pear fruit quality, which causes grainy texture of flesh, because the lignified walls.

Faces appear more attractive when presented in a group compared to individually, which is called cheerleader effect. However, the presentation time of faces likely influence effect, as factors have been shown significant impact many other studies on face perception. Here, we conducted five experiments investigate effect Across behavioral (including in-lab and online tasks, pre-registration), tested 473 subjects. We observed negative, nonlinear pre-cue (the before indicating target face's...
