THE STUDY
Researchers asked women in long-term romantic relationships to take part in a task which tested their memory for faces.
They completed a standard memory task in which they viewed faces for three seconds each and were later asked if they had seen the faces before.
Computer graphics were used to alter the appearance of some of the faces in the memory test, with participants sometimes shown more attractive or less attractive versions of previously viewed identities.

Women in relationships are more likely to remember the faces of other females because they are jealous
- Scientists tested how well women in relationships could remember faces
- How women judge their attractiveness and relationship affected their memory
- Researchers suggested partnered women are more alert to potential love rivals
In another intriguing finding, they found that women had a ‘strong positive bias’ to think a man’s face was more attractive than it was.
This suggests that women put on rose-tinted spectacles when assessing male beauty.
In their experiment, researchers from Abertay University in Dundee tested the memory for faces of women in long-term romantic relationships.
The women completed a standard memory task in which they viewed faces for three seconds each and were later asked if they had seen the faces before.
Computer graphics were used to alter the appearance of some of the faces in the memory test, with participants sometimes shown more attractive or less attractive versions of previously viewed identities.
The quality of the women’s relationships were also assessed by means of a questionnaire.

Abertay’s Dr Christopher Watkins said the research findings showed women in good relationships were particularly adept at remembering other women’s faces.
Dr Watkins of Abertay’s Division of Psychology said: ‘We wanted to examine whether personal factors influence memory – how good you judge your current relationship to be and how attractive other people are likely to find you.’
‘Our findings suggest that these two factors shape both accuracy and illusions in how you remember the attractiveness of faces after a brief encounter.’
In their research paper, published in Cognition, the authors also looked at how women remembered men’s faces.
The authors, summarising their research said: ‘Collectively, these findings suggest that, even with minimal exposure to faces, women are better at retaining knowledge about the identity and appearance of attractive women, but have a stronger positive bias in their memory for men’s appearance’.
The authors add: ‘women may generally be biased toward positive illusions of men’s attractiveness’ and this was most true in the women who were happiest in their relationships.
The research was published in the journal Cognition.
Wanita Yang Mempunyai Kekasih Memiliki Daya Ingatan Yang Lebih Baik
May 6, 2017
Tidak dinafikan wanita memang mempunyai ingatan yang lebih baik berbanding lelaki jika ianya berkaitan dengan cinta.
Kajian terbaharu yang dijalankan oleh Universiti Abertay, Dundee, Scotland mendapati, wanita yang mempunyai kekasih atau sedang dilamun cinta memiliki daya ingatan lebih baik berbanding wanita single.
Kajian juga mendedahkan, wanita yang menjalin hubungan jangka panjang dikatakan memiliki memori lebih baik berbanding wanita yang baru sahaja dilamun cinta.
Kajian dijalankan ke atas beberapa orang wanita di universiti terbabit. Mereka diberikan sekeping foto dan diminta untuk mengingati wajah pada foto tersebut.
Hal tersebut adalah kerana wanita menganggap foto wanita yang dilihat itu sebagai pesaing dalam hubungan percintaan mereka.
“Wanita lazimnya lebih mudah untuk mengingati wajah wanita lain kerana menganggap gambar yang dilihatnya boleh menjadi pengancam dalam hubungan percintaan mereka,” ujar penyelidik. – ac
