Cilj istraživanja je bio provjeriti utjecaj izlaganja licima različite privlačnosti na procjenu vlastite i partnerove vrijednosti kao partnera s pretpostavkom pojavljivanja efekta kontrasta. Rezultati su dobiveni na ukupno 563 sudionika (147 muškaraca i 416 žena), od čega su svi bili u ozbiljnoj vezi. Kao mjera konstrukta „vrijednost kao partnera“ korišten je upitnik Mate Value Inventory (MVI-7) (Kirsner, Figueredo i Jacobs, 2003) kojeg su sudionici rješavali u dva navrata s razmakom od tjedan dana. U prvome dijelu sudionici su procjenjivali samo vlastitu vrijednost i vrijednost svog partnera, dok su u drugom dijelu po slučaju sudjelovali u jednoj od 4 situacije koje su se razlikovale po vrsti slika koje su gledali – privlačna muška lica, neprivlačna muška lica, privlačna ženska lica i neprivlačna ženska lica. Nakon izlaganja slikama, ponovo su procjenjivali vlastitu i partnerovu vrijednost kao partnera. Dobiveni podaci su obrađeni mješovitim modelom analize varijance. Sudionici procjenjuju svoje partnere značajno bolje nego sami sebe, ali bez potvrde efekta kontrasta – nema statistički značajne razlike u samoprocjeni i procjeni partnera prije i nakon izlaganja slikama u tri ekperimentalne situacije. Nakon prikazivanja slika neprivlačnih ženskih lica, sudionici su svoje partnere procijenili lošije te se javila i interakcija procjene sa spolom – kod žena se razlika između samoprocjene i procjene značajno smanjila. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of exposure to faces of different attractiveness on self perceived mate value and one's partner's mate value with the hypothesis of achieving the contrast effect. The data was collected on 563 participants (147 male and 416 female) who were all in committed relationships. To measure one's mate value, we used the Mate Value Inventory (MVI-7)(Kirsner, Figueredo i Jacobs, 2003) which participants took twice with a week interval. In the first part, they assessed their own mate value, as well as their partner's value but in the second part they were divided randomly in one of four different situations due to pictures they were looking at – attractive male faces, unattractive male faces, attractive female faces and unattractive female faces. After the exposure to faces, they assessed once again their own mate value and their partner's mate value. ANOVA showed that participants generally assess their partners higher than themselves but no contrast effect was found. There was no difference in either self perceived nor partner's mate value in three situations. After viewing unattractive female faces, participants gave lower assessments to their partners with the interaction of sex – the difference between self assessment and assessment of their partner signifficantly reduced in women.
