Sex Differences in Human Music Perception are Negligible

Kavli Affiliate: Sarah Woolley | Authors: Mila Bertolo, Daniel Müllensiefen, Isabelle Peretz, Sarah C. Woolley, Jon T. Sakata and Samuel A. Mehr | Summary: Since Darwin1, researchers have proposed that human musicality evolved in a reproductive context in which males produce music to signal their mate quality to females. Sexually selected traits involve tradeoffs in […]
