Many things of a man who makes women easily lured. Apart from her hair, her scent, or a sense of humor, as well as from her voice. In a study published in the journal Memory & Cognition, British researchers revealed that women tend to remember something if they hear of a man with a deep voice, than those whose voices shrill.
"The reason why the tone of his voice becomes important is because the tone of voice to give an indication of how much testosterone he has," said study chairman, Kevin Allan, who is also majoring in psychology lecturer at the University of Aberdeen, UK. "Testosterone is a lot to produce fitus masculine, both in voice and face."
Testosterone also affects the immune system, added Allan. So, a man who has a face and a masculine voice, a sign he has a good immune system, and therefore also a good health condition. As it goes, in evolutionary theory, a healthy father will likely have children who are healthy.
Then how to influence the tone of his voice in her memory?
Tim Allan and gather 45 women with an average age of 21 years. They asked to see a picture with an object while listening to the sound of reciting the name of the object. Men's voices are manipulated to sound hard or shrill.
After that, the women were shown a picture of the object they had seen before, along with a picture that is similar, but slightly different, namely a blue fish and blue fish with yellow spots. When the researchers recorded how many times each woman choose the correct image, it appears that women are more likely to remember when they first saw the picture while listening to the heavy sound of the man who mentions his name.
However, Allan said that this does not happen otherwise (whether men are more likely to remember when listening to female voices in).
"We also collected data from men who listened to the voice of women is high or low tone. We found the tone of voice was no effect at all on the memory of men, "he said.
The conclusion regarding the absence of memory effect in men is because men are choosing a mate based solely on physical karakterisitk. In other words, would a woman's voice was deep or shrill, which is pretty important! And men also will choose it.
