Journal ArticleDOI
The health of a nation predicts their mate preferences: cross-cultural variation in women's preferences for masculinized male faces
Lisa M. DeBruine,Benedict C. Jones,John Robertson Crawford,Lisa L. M. Welling,Anthony C. Little +4 more
TL;DR: This work investigates the relationship between women's preferences for male facial masculinity and a health index derived from World Health Organization statistics for mortality rates, life expectancies and the impact of communicable disease and shows non-arbitrary cross-cultural differences in facial attractiveness judgements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Raised salivary testosterone in women is associated with increased attraction to masculine faces.
Lisa L. M. Welling,Benedict C. Jones,Lisa M. DeBruine,Claire A. Conway,M.J. Law Smith,Anthony C. Little,David R. Feinberg,Martin Sharp,Emad A S Al-Dujaili +8 more
TL;DR: These findings complement those from previous studies that show systematic variation in masculinity preferences during the menstrual cycle and suggest that change in testosterone level may play an important role in cyclic shifts in women's preferences for masculine traits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Women's attractiveness changes with estradiol and progesterone across the ovulatory cycle.
David A. Puts,Drew H. Bailey,Rodrigo A. Cárdenas,Robert P. Burriss,Lisa L. M. Welling,John R. Wheatley,Khytam Dawood +6 more
TL;DR: A pattern of increased attractiveness during peak fertility in the menstrual cycle is strongly suggested and implicate estradiol and progesterone in driving these changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facial cues of dominance modulate the short-term gaze-cuing effect in human observers
Benedict C. Jones,Lisa M. DeBruine,Julie C. Main,Anthony C. Little,Lisa L. M. Welling,David R. Feinberg,Bernard Tiddeman +6 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the mechanisms that underpin reflexive gaze cuing evolved to be sensitive to facial cues of others’ dominance, potentially because such differential gaze cued promoted desirable outcomes from encounters with dominant individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
How valid are assessments of conception probability in ovulatory cycle research? Evaluations, recommendations, and theoretical implications
Steven W. Gangestad,Martie G. Haselton,Lisa L. M. Welling,Kelly A. Gildersleeve,Elizabeth G. Pillsworth,Robert P. Burriss,Christina M. Larson,David A. Puts +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a large literature examining psychological changes across women's ovulatory cycles has accumulated, emphasizing comparisons between fertile and non-fertile phases of the cycle, while some studies have verified ovulation using luteinizing hormone (LH) tests.
