Abstract

This research is about women's perception of attractiveness towards men's tone of voice. The male voice changes during puberty. The change is caused by the increase in the size of the base of the vocal cords caused by the action of the hormone testosterone. Supported by their developmental tasks, voice is one aspect that is assessed by young adults in choosing the best opposite sex as their partner. The study was conducted on a female population in a country with a collectivist culture. The experiment was designed by manipulating the tone of the male voice as a stimulus which was then played to the participants to rate their attractiveness level. The results of the repeated measures ANOVA analysis show that there is a true influence of tone of voice on perceptions of attractiveness. Research is enriched by discussing new findings that are different from previous research. Young adult heterosexual women perceive mid-range vocal tones (average 119 Hz) as the most attractive range of vocal tones, assuming that cultural influences play a role.
