在大量的生理外观的心理学研究中,常见的男性型秃发(MPB)的心理社会影响在很大程度上被忽视了。本实验研究了MPB对男性的初始社会感知的影响。18对秃顶和非秃顶对照组男性的照片幻灯片在实际年龄、种族和其他身体特征上进行了匹配。在第一印象的背景下,54名男性和54名女性在社会感知的七个维度上对这些刺激人员进行了评级。MPB通常导致不太有利的初步印象,包括较低的评级的身体吸引力,判断不理想的个人和人际关系的特点,和误解的年龄。知觉者的性别和年龄以及刺激者的年龄的调节作用进行了研究,大多没有结果。当身体吸引力在统计学上得到控制时,秃头的刻板印象大大减弱。
In the voluminous research on the psychology of physical appearance, the psychosocial effects of common male pattern baldness (MPB) have been largely neglected. The present experiment examined the influence of MPB on the initial social perceptions of men by both sexes. Eighteen pairs of photographic slides of balding and nonbalding control men were matched on the actual age, race, and other physical attributes of the men. In a first‐impressions context, 54 men and 54 women rated these stimulus persons on seven dimensions of social perception. MPB caused generally less favorable initial impressions, including lower ratings of physical attractiveness, judgments of less desirable personal and interpersonal characteristics, and misperceptions of age. The moderating effects of perceivers' sex and age and stimulus persons' age were examined, mostly without consequence. The baldness stereotype was substantially attenuated when physical attractiveness was statistically controlled.
