(INDEPENDENT) — Males are more likely to tolerate “unfair offers” from females if they are attractive, a study into the effects of beauty on our responses has claimed.
In ‘The undermining effect of facial attractiveness on brain responses to fairness in the Ultimatum Game’, published in the journal Frontiers in Neuroscience, researchers investigated “the time course of the neural processing of facial attractiveness and its influence on fairness consideration during social interactions”.
Male participants were shown images of ‘attractive and unattractive’ female faces, as ranked by a separate group, each proposing how to split ¥10 between herself and the responder in a deal responders were told actually existed.
