最近的研究表明，女性认为身体动作多变的男性是优秀的舞者。在这里，我们报告了 48 名年龄在 18-42 岁的男性中女性对舞蹈质量的看法数据，并将其与男性自我报告的人格特质联系起来。男性参与者完成了标准化性格调查表 (NEO-FFI)，然后按照基本节奏跳舞，同时通过光学 3D 动作捕捉技术跟踪他们的身体动作。舞蹈动作被应用到一个没有特征的虚拟人形角色上，并由 53 名年龄在 17 岁至 57 岁之间的女性对她们的舞蹈质量进行评判，她们观看了每个男性舞者的 155 个渲染视频片段。责任心和社交宜人性与女性对男性舞蹈质量的看法呈显着正相关。外向性表现出正相关，而神经质和开放性与女性对男性舞蹈质量的看法呈负相关，尽管这些相关性未能达到显着性。我们认为，男性的舞蹈动作可能传达了他们个性的各个方面，尽管女性择偶偏好和选择方面可能产生的后果仍有待探索。 (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Recent research shows that women judge men who show variability in their body movements as good dancers. Here we report data on women's perception of dance quality in 48 men, aged 18-42 years, and relate them to men's self-reported personality traits. Male participants completed a standardised personality inventory (the NEO-FFI) and then danced to a basic rhythm while their body movements were tracked with optical 3D motion-capture technology. Dance movements were applied to a featureless virtual humanoid character and judged on their dance quality by 53 women, aged 17-57 years, who viewed 155 of the rendered video clips of each male dancer. Conscientiousness and social agreeableness was correlated positively and significantly with women's perception of men's dance quality. Extraversion showed a positive correlation and neuroticism and openness were associated negatively with women's perception of men's dance quality, though these correlations failed to reach significance. We suggest that male dance movements may convey aspects of their personality, though possible consequences in terms of female mate preferences and selection remain to be explored.
