An experiment was conducted to explore the effects of exposure to partner scarcity or abundance messages on men's partner selectivity, romantic confidence, and self-assessed attractiveness. Undergraduate male participants watched a soap opera narrative featuring either two men competing over one potential female partner (partner scarcity) or two women competing over one potential male partner (partner abundance). Relative to control subjects, watching either narrative reduced romantic confidence. Experimental condition also affected partner selectivity and self-assessed attractiveness, though both effects were moderated by endorsement of traditional masculine ideology. Viewing the abundance narrative resulted in greater selectivity and self-assessed attractiveness for men high in endorsement of traditional masculinity but diminished selectivity and self-assessed attractiveness for men low in endorsement of traditional masculine identity.
进行了一项实验,以探究接触伴侣稀缺或丰富信息对男性伴侣选择、浪漫自信和自我评估吸引力的影响。本科男性参与者观看了一部肥皂剧剧情,其中要么是两个男人争夺一个潜在女性伴侣(伴侣稀缺),要么是两个女人争夺一个潜在男性伴侣(伴侣丰富)。相对于对照组受试者,观看任何一种剧情都会降低浪漫自信。实验条件也影响了伴侣选择和自我评估吸引力,不过这两种影响都受到传统男性意识形态认同的调节。观看丰富剧情使高度认同传统男性气质的男性具有更高的选择性和自我评估吸引力,但使低度认同传统男性身份的男性的选择性和自我评估吸引力降低。
