Which aspects of people's appearance do women remember better than men? Women were predicted to remember the dress-related items but not the physical characteristics of targets more accurately than men, given that the former might be a more female-relevant domain of interest among perceivers. Participants watched a videotaped target and then completed a surprise test of their memory for her/his appearance. Men were as accurate as women at remembering the target's physical features but less accurate than woman at recalling what the target was wearing. Discussion focuses on the implications of these findings for eyewitness accuracy.
在人的外貌方面,女性比男性记得更好的是哪些方面?鉴于服装相关内容可能是感知者中更与女性相关的兴趣领域,预计女性比男性更准确地记住与服装相关的物品,而不是目标的身体特征。参与者观看了一个目标的录像,然后对他们对其外貌的记忆进行了一次突击测试。男性在记住目标的身体特征方面与女性一样准确,但在回忆目标穿着什么方面比女性更不准确。讨论集中在这些发现对目击证人准确性的影响上。
