Previous research has shown that when comparing multiple faces, choosing the most attractive face is influenced by prior information about how attractive the face appears to others and by the possibility to compare a face with a similar but obviously less attractive face. The aim of our study was to confirm previous findings on the influence of prior information and the possibility of comparison on the assessment of facial attractiveness, and to investigate which of the factors has a greater influence. 498 participants (146 males) aged between 12 and 51 years participated in an online study. Participants underwent three experimental conditions (prior information, comparison, and combined condition) in which their task was to select the most attractive face from photographs of comparatively attractive faces. Results showed that in the prior information condition, participants more often selected a face that others found more attractive compared to a face without such prior information. In the comparison condition, participants were more likely to select a face that could be compared to a similar but obviously less attractive face than a face for which this possibility did not exist. In the combined condition, participants more often chose a face for which prior information was provided than a face that could be compared to a similar but obviously less attractive face. The results confirm the findings of previous research on prior information and the possibility of comparison and suggest that prior information has a greater influence on the perception of facial attractivenessZaznavanje privlačnosti obrazov je v veliki meri pogojeno z osebnimi izkušnjami in preferencami, hkrati pa nanj vpliva mnogo kognitivnih dejavnikov. Predhodne raziskave so pokazale, da kadar med sabo primerjamo več obrazov, na izbiro najprivlačnejšega med njimi med drugim vpliva predhodna informacija o tem, kako privlačen se obraz zdi drugim, in možnost primerjave enega izmed obrazov s podobnim, vendar očitno manj privlačnim obrazom. Namen naše raziskave je bil potrditi spoznanja predhodnih raziskav glede vpliva predhodne informacije in možnosti primerjave na ocenjevanje privlačnosti obrazov, hkrati pa preveriti, kateri izmed dejavnikov ima večji vpliv. V spletni raziskavi je sodelovalo 498 udeležencev (146 moških) starih med 12 in 51 let. Udeleženci so bili podvrženi trem eksperimentalnim pogojem (predhodna informacija, primerjava in združen pogoj), v katerih so med fotografijami primerljivo privlačnih obrazov izbirali najprivlačnejši obraz. Rezultati so pokazali, da so udeleženci v pogoju predhodne informacije pogosteje izbirali obraz, za katerega so drugi menili, da je privlačnejši, v primerjavi z obrazom, za katerega predhodna informacija ni bila podana. V pogoju primerjave so udeleženci pogosteje izbirali obraz, ki ga je bilo možno primerjati s podobnim, vendar očitno manj privlačnim obrazom, v primerjavi z obrazom, ki te možnosti ni imel. V združenem pogoju pa so udeleženci pogosteje izbirali obraz, za katerega je bila podana predhodna informacija kot obraz, ki ga je bilo možno primerjati s podobnim, vendar očitno manj privlačnim obrazom. Rezultati potrjujejo spoznanja predhodnih raziskav glede predhodne informacije in možnosti primerjave ter nakazujejo, da ima pri zaznavanju privlačnosti obrazov predhodna informacija večji vplivTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaDruštvo psihologov Slovenije
