Male and female student volunteers were photographed nude in three orientations: front, side, and rear. One month later, they were asked to identify their bodies or bodily parts from an array of seven photographs grouped according to height and linearity. Thirty judgments of the full body, multiple parts, and single parts were made, including the head, thorax, abdomen, arms and legs, as well as the torso and top and bottom halves of the body. Females took significantly longer to identify themselves than did males and frontal identifications were carried out quicker than rear identifications, which in turn were judged quicker than side orientations. The breasts were found to be the most important secondary sexual characteristic for females, and bodily hair for males. The genitals were judged quickly and accurately by males. The results are discussed in terms of ego involvement, narcissism, and the increased attention given to the body during adolescence.
正面、侧面和背面。一个月后，他们被要求从根据身高和线性排列的七张照片中识别出自己的身体或身体部位。他们对全身、多个部位和单个部位进行了 30 次判断，包括头部、胸部、腹部、手臂和腿部，以及躯干以及身体的上半部分和下半部分。女性识别自己的时间明显长于男性，正面识别比背面识别快，而背面识别又比侧面识别快。研究发现，女性最重要的第二性征是乳房，而男性最重要的第二性征是体毛。男性可以快速准确地判断生殖器。研究结果从自我投入、自恋以及青春期对身体的关注度增加等方面进行了讨论。
