Abstract
30 male and 30 female students rated a female photographed with either an attractive or an unattractive male on 8 bipolar adjective scales. The female was rated more positively when paired with an attractive male than when paired with an unattractive male on 6 of the 8 adjective scales. There were no significant differences between the ratings given by male and female subjects and no significant interactions.Keywords
