Effects of visual exposure to the opposite sex: cognitive aspects of mate attraction in human malesJames R Roney
Institute for Mind and Biology, University of Chicago, 940 E 57th Street, Room 126, Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Pers Soc Psychol Bull 29:393-404. 2003..These findings suggest a model of mate attraction mechanisms in which input cues from potential mates can prime those psychological representations that facilitate the behavioral expression of courtship tactics...
Reading men's faces: women's mate attractiveness judgments track men's testosterone and interest in infantsJames R Roney
Department of Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 9660, USA
Proc Biol Sci 273:2169-75. 2006..These results suggest that women can detect facial cues of men's hormone concentrations and affinity for children, and that women use perception of these cues to form mate attractiveness judgments...
Hormonal predictors of sexual motivation in natural menstrual cyclesJames R Roney
University of California, Santa Barbara, USA Electronic address
Horm Behav 63:636-45. 2013..Our study is among the first to identify hormonal predictors of within-cycle fluctuations in sexual motivation, and thus adds novel evidence regarding the endocrine correlates of human sexuality...
Men smelling women: null effects of exposure to ovulatory sweat on men's testosteroneJames R Roney
Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, University of California at Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara, CA, USA
Evol Psychol 10:703-13. 2012....
Rapid endocrine responses of young men to social interactions with young womenJames R Roney
Department of Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 9660, USA
Horm Behav 52:326-33. 2007..The results provide evidence that social interactions with potential mates can in fact trigger specific patterns of endocrine responses in human males...
Women's estradiol predicts preference for facial cues of men's testosteroneJames R Roney
Department of Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 9660, USA
Horm Behav 53:14-9. 2008....
Androgen receptor gene sequence and basal cortisol concentrations predict men's hormonal responses to potential matesJames R Roney
Department of Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106, USA
Proc Biol Sci 277:57-63. 2010..In sum, the present study both confirms men's hormonal reactions to potential mates and identifies novel biological variables that predict individual differences in these responses...
Changes in estradiol predict within-women shifts in attraction to facial cues of men's testosteroneJames R Roney
Department of Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 9660, USA
Psychoneuroendocrinology 36:742-9. 2011....
Variation in CAG repeat length of the androgen receptor gene predicts variables associated with intrasexual competitiveness in human malesZachary L Simmons
Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106 9660, USA
Horm Behav 60:306-12. 2011..These findings provide further evidence for the importance of the CAG repeat polymorphism in the AR gene in explaining a broad range of individual differences in human males...
The origins of extraversion: joint effects of facultative calibration and genetic polymorphismAaron W Lukaszewski
Haas School of Business, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA, USA
Pers Soc Psychol Bull 37:409-21. 2011..These novel findings initially support an integrative model wherein facultative calibration and specific genetic polymorphisms operate in concert to determine personality variation...
Androgens and energy allocation: quasi-experimental evidence for effects of influenza vaccination on men's testosteroneZachary L Simmons
Department of Psychology, University of California, Santa Barbara, California 93106 9660, USA
Am J Hum Biol 21:133-5. 2009..These results suggest that men's androgen concentrations may be finely calibrated to trade-offs between the energetic demands of immune responses and other life history problems...
Father absence, menarche and interest in infants among adolescent girlsDario Maestripieri
Institute for Mind and Biology, University of Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Dev Sci 7:560-6. 2004..Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that father absence is associated with a developmental trajectory characterized by earlier readiness for reproduction and parenting...
