Remembering beauty: Roles of orbitofrontal and hippocampal regions in successful memory encoding of attractive faces
Behavioral data have shown that attractive faces are better remembered but the neural mechanisms of this effect are largely unknown. To investigate this issue, female participants were scanned with event-related functional MRI (fMRI) while rating the attractiveness of male faces. Memory for the faces was tested after fMRI scanning and was used to identify successful encoding activity (subsequen...
متن کاملWhy are average faces attractive ?
A. L. Austin observed, in a letter written to Charles Darwin in 1877, that a composite of two faces was strikingly attractive. Mr. Austin placed two different portraits in a stereoscope and noticed that they fused into a single portrait. He wrote: “The faces blend in the most remarkable manner, producing in case of some ladies portraits, in every instance, a decided improvement in beauty” (Galt...
متن کاملAttractive faces temporally modulate visual attention
Facial attractiveness is an important biological and social signal on social interaction. Recent research has demonstrated that an attractive face captures greater spatial attention than an unattractive face does. Little is known, however, about the temporal characteristics of visual attention for facial attractiveness. In this study, we investigated the temporal modulation of visual attention ...
متن کاملBeauty is Attractive: Moduli Trapping at Enhanced Symmetry Points
We study quantum effects on moduli dynamics arising from the production of particles which are light at points of enhanced symmetry in moduli space. The resulting forces trap the moduli at these points. Moduli trapping occurs in time-dependent quantum field theory, as well as in systems of moving D-branes, where it leads the branes to combine into stacks. Trapping also occurs in the presence of...
متن کاملAppearance of symmetry, beauty, and health in human faces.
Symmetry is an important concept in biology, being related to mate selection strategies, health, and survival of species. In human faces, the relevance of left-right symmetry to attractiveness and health is not well understood. We compared the appearance of facial attractiveness, health, and symmetry in three separate experiments. Participants inspected front views of faces on the computer scre...
