oxytocin; interpersonal closeness; emotional accuracy; sex differences
Résumé :
[en] The effects of oxytocin might be sexual dimorphic. Male and female participants (N=122; 49% females) were tested using intranasal spray in a double-blind randomized, OT vs. placebo-controlled trial. OT-men reported an increase in interpersonal closeness and higher emotional accuracy relative to OT-women; placebo conditions did not yield sex differences.
