摘　　要：进化心理学的研究显示,女性更喜欢那些拥有男性化面孔及特定体味、身体对称、外表健康的男性,并且这种偏好会随着女性的月经周期而发生转变。在排卵期表现出明显的男性化偏好,而在其他时段偏好不明显,该效应被称为"周期转换效应"。通过梳理三种主流的解释视角,即基因选择假设、激素刺激假设和排卵引起知觉偏差的假设,结合"周期转换效应"遇到的挑战,从而指出未来的研究方向。Research shows women＇s preferences for masculine properties, such as body symmetry, healthy appearance, masculine faces, body scent and high creativity change cyclically. A woman＇s probability of conception is associated with her preference for masculinity. Women prefer more masculine properties when they are fertile. The phenomenon is named Cyclical Shifts in Mating Preferences. Hypotheses of gene selection, hormone stimulation, and perception error induced by ovulation are used to explain this behavior. Future research could be more precise in design of experiments, and require proximate mechanisms.
