The resulting prediction equation was highly significant (R =.77, F[\2, 37] = 4.37, p <.0001). Separate regressions equation using only the group of neonate (R =.63), only mature (R =.61), and only expressive features (R =.63) were also highly significant. Because the predictors were not independent, partial correlations were conducted. It was determined that the groups of neonate (R =.34), mature (R =.25), and expressive (R =.23) features each were significantly associated with attractiveness independently of the effects of the other two groups of predictors. The optimal multiple regression analysis used the neonate features of eye height (/3 =.24, t = 2.03, p <.05), and nose area (@ =.28, t = 2.48, p <.02), the mature feature of narrow cheek width (/? =.35, t = 2.96, p <.005), and the expressive feature of smile width (/? =.28, t = 2.44, p <.02); it was found to be as effective (R =.73, F[4, 45] = 12.46, p <.0001) as the full set and accounted for 52.5% of the variance in mean attractiveness ratings. The nonwhite beauty pageant contestants received further attention to determine the attractiveness standards used in other cultures to govern representatives to international beauty competition. In comparison with the American college seniors, the Black and Oriental beauty contestants had significantly greater eye height (F[l, 34] = 18.43, p <.0001), eye width (F[l, 34] = 18.76, p <.0001) and distances between their eyes (F[\, 34] = 15.40, p <.0001), wider nostrils (F[l, 34] = 21.91, p <.0001), marginally longer noses (F[l, 34] = 2.96, p =.09), larger upper lips (F[l, 34] = 13.40, p <.0001), larger lower lips (F[l, 34] = 9.25, p <.005), smaller chins (F[l, 34] = 10.13, p <.003), somewhat wider cheekbones (F[l, 34] = 3.76, p =.06), somewhat narrower cheeks (F[l, 34] = 3.78, p =.06), higher eyebrows (F[l, 34] = 28.94, p <.0001), and wider smile (F[l, 34] = 6.67, p <.01). There were no differences between the Black and Oriental pageant contestants, compared with the American college seniors in nose tip width (F[l, 34] =.69, ns), nose area (F[l, 34] =.11, ns), height of smile (F[l, 34] = 1.64, ns), and pupil width (F[l, 34] = 2.00, ns). Thus, the Black and Oriental beauty contestants possessed ethnically distinct features, but also displayed most of the facial features associated with attractiveness in Caucasians. Attractive features (women) Neonatal features Discussion Large eyes Small nose Quasi-Experiment 1 demonstrated that males were attracted to females possessing the neonate features of large eyes, small nose area, small chin, and widely spaced eyes. The males were also attracted to females with the mature features of wide cheekbones and narrow cheeks, and the expressive features of highly set eyebrows, wide pupils, and a large smile. Beautiful features seemed to be those which deviate in specific ways from what is typical in the population (cf. Galton, 1907; Light et al., 1981). Such features are the focus of cosmetic, orthodontic (Korabik, 1981), and rhinoplastic alteration (Cash & Morton, 1983), further attesting to their importance. Forehead size was uncorrelated with attractiveness ratings. This may have been due to measurement error caused by hairstyle covering the forehead. Both forehead and nose shape may prove more influential with profile portraits. Lip size was also unrelated to attractiveness, perhaps because lip size differences were minimized by the smiling pose. Nostril width was positively associated with attractiveness, but this was found to be attributable to the effect of smiling. Hair and skin color were unrelated to attractiveness ratings, but the use of black and white photographs may have minimized differences due to pigmentation. Black and Oriental beauty pageant contestants were found to possess most of the patterns of neonate, mature, and expressive features associated with attractiveness in Caucasians. Although contestants were chosen by their native countries, the Miss Universe contest panel of judges were multinational, and the pageant was held in Japan, perhaps those facial features found to be attractive in this investigation were universally attractive. Alternatively, because the Miss Universe pageant derived substantial revenues from sales of television time, chiefly in Western nations, it was possible that the Black and Oriental contestants were cho- of smile, width of lower lip, and length of chin length of face; 19 = Width of cheeks, calculated as an assessment of facial roundness based on the measured width of face at mouth length of face; 20 = Thickness of upper lip, measured vertically at center length of face; 21 = Thickness of lower lip, measured vertically at center length of face; 22 = Height of smile, vertical distance between lips at center of smile length of face; 23 = Width of smile, distance between mouth inner corners width of face at mouth; 24 = Length of chin, distance from lower edge of lower lip to base of chin length of face.

Amount of love in marriages 80 70 60 50 40 Arranged For love 30 0-1 1-2 2-5 5-10 10+ Years A true-false quiz about marriage. Based on Marriage, a History How Love Conquered Marriage, by Stephanie Coontz

T of F: There are more long-term marriages today than in the past. TRUE. Although divorce rates have risen, death rates have fallen even more steeply, so that more couples will celebrate their 40th wedding anniversaries now than at any time in the past. Furthermore, the divorce rate reached its height more than 25 years ago. It has fallen by more than 25% since 1981. Americans have become much more tolerant of all sexual activity. FALSE. Americans are now much more tolerant of consenting sexual relations between unmarried adults than in the past. But surveys show that disapproval of adultery, sexual coercion, rape, and sex with minors has increased over the past 30 years and is now at a historic high. In 1889, a girl could legally consent to sex at 10, 11, or 12 in half the states, and in Delaware the age of consent was 7. There were many more prostitutes per capita in the late 19th century America than there are today - resulting in a high incidence of venereal disease among respectably married women infected by their husbands. The growth in the number of couples living together and even having children without formal marriage ceremonies or licenses reflects a sharp break with centuries-old tradition. FALSE. For the first thousand years of its existence, the church held that a marriage was valid if a couple claimed they had exchanged words of consent - even if there were no witnesses and no priest to officiate. Not until 1754 did England require issuance of a license for a marriage to be valid. Informal marriage and cohabitation were so common in early 19th-century America that one judge estimated that 1/3 of all children were born to couples who were not legally married. Throughout history, philosophers and theologians have always believed that strong marital commitments form the foundation of a virtuous society. FALSE. Ancient Roman philosophers and medieval theologians thought that loving your spouse too much was a form of adultery, a betrayal of one s obligations to country or God. The ancient Greeks held that the purest form of love was between two men. In China, Confucian philosophers ranked the relationship between husband and wife as 2nd from the bottom on their list of the most important family ties, with the father-eldest son relationship topping the list. Early Christians thought marriage was inescapably tainted by the presence of sex. According to the medieval Church, virgins ranked highest in godliness, widows were 2nd, and wives a distant 3rd.

The preferred form of marriage through the ages has been between one man and one woman. FALSE. The form of marriage that has been approved by more societies than any other through the ages has been polygamy - one man and many women. That family form is the one mentioned most often in the first 5 books of the Bible. In some societies, one women could marry several men. In others, 2 families could forge an alliance by marrying off a son or daughter to the ghost of the other family s dead child. For most of history, the main impetus for marriage was getting in-laws and managing property, not love or sex. Attachment Types Secure: I find it relatively easy to get close to others and am comfortable depending on them and having them depend on me. I don't often worry about being abandoned or about someone getting too close to me. Avoidant: I am somewhat uncomfortable being close to others; I find it difficult to trust them completely, difficult to allow myself to depend on them. I am nervous when anyone gets too close, and often, love partners want me to be more intimate than I feel comfortable being. Anxious/Ambivalent: I find that others are reluctant to get as close as I would like. I often worry that my partner doesn't really love me or won't want to stay with me. I want to merge completely with another person, and this desire sometimes scares people away.
