Low-, medium-, and high-testosterone subjects listened to four 30-s recorded stimuli while a computer system continuously measured their pupil size. The stimuli dealt with sex, aggression, and two neutral topics. Subjects dilated more to sex than to the other topics. Male and female subjects responded similarly, although low-testosterone males did not dilate as long as other subjects to the sexual stimulus. Auditory stimuli avoid a brightness artifact associated with visual stimuli. Auditory stimuli can be used in a variety of pupillometry studies, including studies of ongoing conversation and social interaction.
低睾酮、中睾酮和高睾酮受试者在计算机系统持续测量其瞳孔大小的同时,聆听了四段30秒的录制刺激音。这些刺激音涉及性、攻击性和两个中性主题。与其他主题相比,受试者对性刺激的瞳孔扩张程度更大。男性和女性受试者的反应相似,不过低睾酮男性对性刺激的瞳孔扩张持续时间不如其他受试者长。听觉刺激可避免与视觉刺激相关的亮度伪影。听觉刺激可用于各种瞳孔测量研究,包括正在进行的对话和社交互动研究。
