Episode 5: Are smart people hotter?
Monday, 4 September, 2023
This week, we talk about the halo effect, and other psychological research into attraction. We talk about how people assume attractive people are better than others at everything they do, how opposites don't attract, and how we're all supposed to marry our third cousins according to economists. This was a fun week, thank you for listening! Some of the things we talk about: The Halo Effect: Lucker, G. W., Beane, W. E., & Helmreich, R. L. (1981). The strength of the halo effect in physical attractiveness research. The Journal of Psychology, 107(1), 69-75. Assortative Mating (opposites don't attract): Vandenberg, S. G. (1972). Assortative mating, or who marries whom?. Behavior genetics, 2(2-3), 127-157.Chicago Frieze, I. H., Olson, J. E., & Russell, J. (1991). Attractiveness and income for men and women in management 1.
