过去对普通黑猩猩、黑猩猩的研究以及对人类的跨文化数据表明,相对于女性,男性更喜欢群体而不是个人的互动。目前的研究测试了这种性别差异是否会发现在6-8个月大的人类婴儿使用优先寻找范式。结果表明,相对于女性,男性更关注群体而不是个体刺激。这一结果与人类社会关系组织中产生性别差异的进化机制是一致的。(C)2004年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Past research with common chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes, and cross-cultural data with human beings suggest that relative to females, males prefer group over individual interaction. The present study tested whether this sex difference would be found in 6-8-month-old human infants using a preferential looking paradigm. Results showed that relative to females, males looked more at the group versus the individual stimuli. The results are consistent with an evolutionary mechanism that produced sex differences in the organization of relationships in human society. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
