Sexuality as a social and psychological construct varies within the socio-cultural traditions in the history of the human society. The absence of prehistoric written records does not allow us to explore in depth its genesis, so we have to use models and hypotheses based on fragmented and indirect data and on comparative studies. In this session we will attempt to explore the following problems:...

OBJECTIVE We investigated gender differences in event-related potential (ERP) responses to subliminally presented threat-related stimuli. METHODS Twenty-four participants were presented with threat-related and neutral pictures for a very brief period of time (17 ms). To explore gender differences in ERP responses to subliminally presented stimuli, we examined six ERP components [P1, N170, N25...

Women outperform men in face recognition and are especially good at recognizing other females’ faces. This may be caused by a larger female interest in faces. The aims of this study were to investigate if women were more interested in female faces and if depth of friendship was related to face recognition. Forty-one women and 16 men completed two face recognition tasks: one in which the faces s...

A sample of 122 ethnically diverse college students participated and completed online versions of the forenamed tests. A hierarchical regression was performed to test for the hypothesized i...

Singaporean elementary-school students (N 1⁄4 299) completed Child Implicit Association Tests (Child IAT) as well as explicit measures of gender identity, mathegender stereotypes, and math self-concepts. Students also completed a standardized math achievement test. Three new findings emerged. First, implicit, but not explicit, math self-concepts (math 1⁄4 me) were positively related to math ach...

We investigated the participation and performance trends and the gender difference and the age-related decline in performance, at the "Powerman Zofingen" long-distance d...

There are only few studies describing gender differences in recognition of facial expressions. Our study has the aim to analyze the effect of gender differences in oscillatory brain responses. Three sets of Ekman and Friesens's facial expressions (neutral, angry, and happy) were presented to 26 healthy subjects (13 men) while recording from 13 different scalp locations. Occipital beta response ...

We study dating behavior using data from a Speed Dating experiment where we generate random matching of subjects and create random variation in the number of potential partners. Our design allows us to directly observe individual decisions rather than just …nal matches. Women put greater weight on the intelligence and the race of partner, while men respond more to physical attractiveness. Moreo...
