Abstract

The study was conducted in the Republic of Altai, one of the Russian regions, with the participation ofstudents of different ethnic and gender backgrounds. The main idea was to clarify the anthropoestheticpreferences when choosing a sexual partner; however, in this work, attention is paid to a characteristicfeature of the drawn face – its asymmetry. One of the original projective psychodiagnostic methods was used– face drawing, which made it possible to determine the coefficient of asymmetry of its structural elementsand the manifestation of emotions in relation to a potential sexual partner. The algorithm for obtaining a facepattern, drawing reference (cephalometric) points, and a module for calculating asymmetry was describedin detail. In addition, the authors made an attempt to show the connection between asymmetry and the spaceoccupied by facial structural elements with the emotional background.
