Facial attractiveness, symmetry, and physical fitness in young women.
This study explores the evolutionary-based hypothesis that facial attractiveness (a guiding force in mate selection) is a cue for physical fitness (presumably an important contributor to mate value in ancestral times). Since fluctuating asymmetry, a measure of developmental stability, is known to be a valid cue for fitness in several biological domains, we scrutinized facial asymmetry as a pote...
متن کاملHuman body odour, symmetry and attractiveness.
Several studies have found body and facial symmetry as well as attractiveness to be human mate choice criteria. These characteristics are presumed to signal developmental stability. Human body odour has been shown to influence female mate choice depending on the immune system, but the question of whether smell could signal general mate quality, as do other cues, was not addressed in previous st...
متن کاملFemale appearance: facial and bodily attractiveness as shape
Human physical attractiveness is supposed to reflect developmental stability (i.e. the ability of individuals to maintain stable development of their morphology under a given environmental condition) and physiological status. Hence, evolutionary psychologists have suggested that appearance may not only reveal so called ‘honest signals’ but even comprise a single ornament of mate value. However,...
متن کاملFacial and vocal attractiveness: a developmental and cross-modality study
Research on physical attraction is often interpreted with reference to the theory that physical attraction enables adaptive mate choice behaviour. The sensation of physical attraction is thought to enable humans to select those mates who are most likely to help them bear the fittest offspring. The sexual behaviour associated with mate choice emerges at puberty, and so the present study investig...
متن کاملIs visual reference necessary? Contributions of facial versus vocal cues in 12-month-olds' social referencing behavior.
To examine the influences of facial versus vocal cues on infants' behavior in a potentially threatening situation, 12-month-olds on a visual cliff received positive facial-only, vocal-only, or both facial and vocal cues from mothers. Infants' crossing times and looks to mother were assessed. Infants crossed the cliff faster with multimodal and vocal than with facial cues, and looked more to mot...
