Previous research has demonstrated that hormones, relationship goals, and social context influence interest in the opposite sex. It has not been previously reported, however, whether having a current sexual partner also influences interest in members of the opposite sex. To test this, we obtained explicit and implicit measures of interest by measuring men's and women's subjective ratings and response times while they evaluated photos of opposite-sex faces. Fifty-nine men and 56 women rated 510 photos of opposite-sex faces for realism, masculinity, attractiveness, or affect. We found that these subjective ratings were not influenced by partner status in either men or women. However, women who did not report having a current sexual partner spent more time evaluating the photos than women who did have partners, demonstrating greater interest in the photos. Sexual partner status did not predict men's response times. These findings may reveal that relationship commitment in women suppresses interest in alternative partners.
先前的研究表明，激素、恋爱目标和社会环境会影响对异性的兴趣。然而，目前是否有性伴侣是否也会影响对异性的兴趣，此前尚无相关报道。为了验证这一点，我们通过测量男性和女性在评估异性面部照片时的主观评分和反应时间，获得了对兴趣的显性和隐性测量。59名男性和56名女性对510张异性面部照片的逼真度、男子气概、吸引力或情感进行了评分。我们发现，这些主观评分在男性和女性中均不受伴侣状态的影响。然而，未报告有当前性伴侣的女性比有伴侣的女性花更多时间评估照片，这表明她们对照片更感兴趣。性伴侣状态并不能预测男性的反应时间。这些发现可能表明，女性的恋爱承诺会抑制对其他伴侣的兴趣。
