人们对西方、受过教育、工业化、富裕和民主社会之外的择偶偏好知之甚少,尽管这些西方人口可能特别不具有代表性。据我们所知,这是第一项测试哪些面部线索影响非洲女性对非洲女性吸引力的看法的研究,也是第一项测试面部肥胖、肤色(亮度、黄色和红色)、皮肤同质性和年轻性在任何人群面部吸引力偏好中的综合作用的研究。结果表明,年轻程度、肤色、皮肤同质性和面部肥胖程度可以显着且独立地预测非洲女性面孔的吸引力。年轻、瘦弱、肤色较浅、较黄且肤色更均匀的女性被认为更具吸引力。这些发现为人类择偶提供了更全面的视角,并指出这四种面部线索在女性面部吸引力中的普遍作用。
Little is known about mate choice preferences outside Western, educated, industrialised, rich and democratic societies, even though these Western populations may be particularly unrepresentative of human populations. To our knowledge, this is the first study to test which facial cues contribute to African perceptions of African female attractiveness and also the first study to test the combined role of facial adiposity, skin colour (lightness, yellowness and redness), skin homogeneity and youthfulness in the facial attractiveness preferences of any population. Results show that youthfulness, skin colour, skin homogeneity and facial adiposity significantly and independently predict attractiveness in female African faces. Younger, thinner women with a lighter, yellower skin colour and a more homogenous skin tone are considered more attractive. These findings provide a more global perspective on human mate choice and point to a universal role for these four facial cues in female facial attractiveness.
