We examined the relationship between infant attractiveness and adult affect by investigating whether differing levels of infant facial attractiveness elicit facial muscle movement correlated with positive and negative affect from adults (N=87) using electromyography. Unattractive infant faces evoked significantly more corrugator supercilii and levator labii superioris movement (physiological correlates of negative affect) than attractive infant faces. These results suggest that unattractive infants may be at risk for negative affective responses from adults, though the relationship between those responses and caregiving behavior remains elusive.
我们通过使用肌电图研究不同程度的婴儿面部吸引力是否会引发与成年人的积极和消极情绪相关的面部肌肉运动，来检验婴儿吸引力与成年人情感之间的关系（N = 87）。与有吸引力的婴儿面孔相比，没有吸引力的婴儿面孔会引发显著更多的皱眉肌和提上唇肌运动（消极情绪的生理相关指标）。这些结果表明，没有吸引力的婴儿可能面临来自成年人负面情感反应的风险，尽管这些反应与养育行为之间的关系仍然难以捉摸。
