Why 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.

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 کاملRemembering 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 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 ...

Three- to 4-month-olds preferred attractive over unattractive domestic and wild cat (tiger) faces (Experiments 1 and 3). The preference was not observed when the faces were inverted, suggesting that it did not arise from low-level image differences (Experimen...
متن کاملIntegrating gaze direction and expression in preferences for attractive faces.
Few studies have investigated how physical and social facial cues are integrated in the formation of face preferences. Here we show that expression differentially qualifies the strength of attractiveness preferences for faces with direct and averted gaze. For judgments of faces with direct gaze, attractiveness preferences were stronger for smiling faces than for faces with neutral expressions. ...
