最近BBC性别网络调查发表了一篇文章,揭示了不同性别间大脑和行为的差异。调查主要聚焦于下列问题:跟性有关的认知能力,个性、兴趣、性取向、行为和生理特点。调查结果发表在《性行为档案》2007年4月的特版。
Frontal views of the brains of men and women. Credit: UCI BBC Science, in collaboration with researchers in the United Kingdom and North America, designed their research project on psychological sex differences in conjunction with their TV documentary, Secrets of the Sexes. The project culminated in the creation of the BBC Internet Survey, which was posted on the BBC Science and Nature website.
男女大脑的正面视图。UCI BBC科学同英国及北美的研究人员合作,对性心理差别进行研究,并结合TV纪录片《性的秘密》的拍摄。该计划最成功的部分就是BBC网络调查,其结果将刊登在《BBC科学》和《自然》网站上。
In just three months (February-May 2005), over 250,000 people from all over the world responded to the full survey. Some initial results were presented in July 2005 in the program, Secrets of the Sexes. The complete dataset has been analyzed since, with key findings published in the current issue of the Archives of Sexual Behavior.
仅仅三个月中,全球各地就有250,000人参加了该调查。《性的秘密》已于2005年6月公布了部分调查结果。全部结果已经分析完毕,其关键发现将刊登于《性行为档案》最新一期。
Included in the April issue of the Archives of Sexual Behavior is a paper on methodology, describing the study’s history, rationale, ethics and methodological considerations, namely the advantages and limitations of internet-based research. Stian Reimers, from the Department of Psychology at University College London in the UK, says in this paper, “Much is made of the different agendas of science and the media, and the tensions that can occur when the two interact. Although this tension is not likely to disappear in the near future, it is hoped that this project can serve as an example of how positive interaction between the two professions can have beneficial consequences for both.”
《性行为档案》4月刊还将发表一篇关于方法论的论文,文中描述了研究的历史、国别、道德观和方法论考虑,也就是网络调查的优缺点。英国伦敦大学学院心理系的斯塔恩在文中说,“科学和媒体已经在各自的领域有很大的发展,二者结合时将会有很大的矛盾,而且,这种矛盾在短期内不会消失。但是我们希望二者可以发挥各自最积极的一面,得到最有利的结果。”
The remaining papers address a range of topics in the study of sex differences and sexuality, including:
文中还将介绍性别差异和性征方面的话题,包括:
    Mental abilities decline with age more in men than in women. All mental abilities decline with age, but the decline is steeper in men than in women. Furthermore, this effect is independent of sexual orientation.
随着年龄增长,男性性能力衰退的速度要快于女性。心理能力也会随着年龄的增长而衰退,但是男性衰退速度要快于女性。另外。该结果与性取向无关。
    Sex differences and cultural variations in mate preferences. Across all participants, the traits ranked most important in a relationship partner are intelligence, humor, honesty, kindness, overall good looks, face attractiveness, values, communication skills and dependability. However, on average, men rank good looks and facial attractiveness more important than women do, whereas women rank honesty, humor, kindness, and dependability more important than men do.
择友倾向中的性别差异和文化差异。在所有参与者中,同伴间最重要的特点是聪明、幽默、诚实、善良、身材好、相貌佳、身价、沟通技巧和责任感。不过,男性通常比女性更重视身材和相貌,而女性则更重视对方是否诚实、幽默、善良、的责任感。
    Associations among birth order, handedness and sexual orientation. The strongest handedness (left- or right-handedness) finding for both sexes is a marked tendency for participants who describe themselves as bisexual also to describe themselves as ambidextrous.
把出生顺序、使用左右手的习惯和性取向联系起来。不管是那种性别,使用手的习惯跟性取向都有很强烈的联系,那些双手使用起来一样熟练的人,往往也是声称自己是双性恋的人。
    Sex differences and sexual orientation differences in mental abilities. Across nations, men score higher than women on tests of mental rotation and the ability to judge line angles, whereas women score higher than men on tests of object location memory and word fluency. On average, gay men’s visual-spatial abilities differ from those of heterosexual men—shifted in the direction of women’s abilities. Similarly, lesbian women’s visual-spatial abilities differ from those of heterosexual women—shifted in the direction of men’s abilities.
性别差异和性取向与心理能力不同。不同国家的男性表现出在心理旋转和判断角度方面的测试中,强于女性的能力。而在语言流利和物体位置记忆方面,女性则有明显的优势。一般说来,男同性恋的空间视觉能力与异性恋男人不同,更偏向于女性。
    The link between sex drive and attractions to men and women. For women, high sex drive is associated with increased sexual attraction to both women and men. For men, however, high sex drive is associated with increased attraction to one sex or the other, but not both, depending on their sexual orientation.
男女之间性冲动和性吸引的联系。对于女人来说,强烈的性冲动与双方的性吸引有关;对于男人,强烈的性冲动只与其中一方有关,并且取决于性取向。
