摘要

我们报告了两个实验,旨在研究一系列包含花香和果味的令人愉悦的香味是否会调节人们对面部吸引力(实验1)和年龄(实验2)的判断,这些人选择了年龄在20-69岁之间的典型女性面孔。在实验1中,男性参与者认为女性的脸在面对难闻的香味时不如面对干净的空气时有吸引力。当参与者认为难闻气味的吸引力和愉悦度较低,而强度较高时,女性面孔的吸引力评级就会降低。在实验2中,男性和女性参与者在四种令人愉快的香味或干净的空气作为对照时,对女性面孔的年龄进行评分。只有女性参与者表现出了跨模态效应,令人愉悦的香味使40-49岁年龄段的女性面孔的评分更老,而60-69岁年龄段的女性面孔的评分更年轻。综上所述,这些结果与以下观点是一致的:尽管香味的效价(令人愉快的与不愉快的)对面部吸引力的判断产生了强大的跨模态影响,但令人愉快的香味对判断一个人的年龄的影响似乎不太可靠。对于气味在两种情况下的不同影响,一个可能的解释是,与年龄评级相比,吸引力判断更主观、更享乐和/或更直觉,而年龄评级更客观、更认知、更分析。

Investigating the Crossmodal Influence of Odour on the Visual Perception of Facial Attractiveness and Age.

We report two experiments designed to investigate whether the presentation of a range of pleasant fragrances, containing both floral and fruity notes, would modulate people's judgements of the facial attractiveness (Experiment 1) and age (Experiment 2) of a selection of typical female faces varying in age in the range 20-69 years. In Experiment 1, male participants rated the female faces as less attractive when presented with an unpleasant fragrance compared to clean air. The rated attractiveness of the female faces was lower when the participants rated the unpleasant odour as having a lower attractiveness and pleasantness, and a higher intensity. In Experiment 2, both male and female participants rated the age of female faces while presented with one of four pleasant fragrances or clean air as a control. Only the female participants demonstrated a crossmodal effect, with the pleasant fragrances inducing an older rating for female faces in the 40-49-years-old age range, whereas a younger rating was documented for female faces in the 60-69-years-old age range. Taken together, these results are consistent with the view that while the valence of fragrance (pleasant versus unpleasant) exerts a robust crossmodal influence over judgements of facial attractiveness, the effects of pleasant fragrance on judgements of a person's age appear to be less reliable. One possible explanation for the differing effect of scent in the two cases relates to the fact that attractiveness judgements are more subjective, hedonic, and/or intuitive than age ratings which are more objective, cognitive-mediated, and/or analytic in nature.

期刊介绍: Multisensory Research is an interdisciplinary archival journal covering all aspects of multisensory processing including the control of action, cognition and attention. Research using any approach to increase our understanding of multisensory perceptual, behavioural, neural and computational mechanisms is encouraged. Empirical, neurophysiological, psychophysical, brain imaging, clinical, developmental, mathematical and computational analyses are welcome. Research will also be considered covering multisensory applications such as sensory substitution, crossmodal methods for delivering sensory information or multisensory approaches to robotics and engineering. Short communications and technical notes that draw attention to new developments will be included, as will reviews and commentaries on current issues. Special issues dealing with specific topics will be announced from time to time. Multisensory Research is a continuation of Seeing and Perceiving, and of Spatial Vision.
