We have investigated whether preferences for masculine and feminine characteristics are correlated across two modalities, olfaction and vision. In study 1, subjects rated the pleasantness of putative male (4,16-androstadien-3-one; 5alpha-androst-16-en-3-one) and female (1,3,5 (10),16-estratetraen-3-ol) pheromones, and chose the most attractive face shape from a masculine-feminine continuum for a long- and a short-term relationship. Study 2 replicated study 1 and further explored the effects of relationship context on pheromone ratings. For long-term relationships, women's preferences for masculine face shapes correlated with ratings of 4,16-androstadien-3-one and men's preferences for feminine face shapes correlated with ratings of 1,3,5(10),16-estratetraen-3-ol. These studies link sex-specific preferences for putative human sex pheromones and sexually dimorphic facial characteristics. Our findings suggest that putative sex pheromones and sexually dimorphic facial characteristics convey common information about the quality of potential mates.
我们研究了在嗅觉和视觉这两种方式中，对男性和女性特征的偏好是否相关。在研究1中，受试者对假定的男性（4,16 - 雄甾二烯 - 3 - 酮；5α - 雄甾 - 16 - 烯 - 3 - 酮）和女性（1,3,5（10）,16 - 雌甾四烯 - 3 - 醇）信息素的愉悦度进行评分，并从男性化 - 女性化连续体中选择出长期和短期关系中最具吸引力的脸型。研究2重复了研究1，并进一步探讨了关系背景对信息素评分的影响。对于长期关系，女性对男性化脸型的偏好与4,16 - 雄甾二烯 - 3 - 酮的评分相关，而男性对女性化脸型的偏好与1,3,5（10）,16 - 雌甾四烯 - 3 - 醇的评分相关。这些研究将对假定的人类性信息素的性别特异性偏好与两性异形的面部特征联系起来。我们的研究结果表明，假定的性信息素和两性异形的面部特征传达了关于潜在配偶质量的共同信息。
