   Men who sound like singer Barry White or actor James Earl Jones can get ahead in the mating game because women remember a deep male voice, scientists have revealed。


  Scientists at the University of Aberdeen in Scotland have proved for the first time that a low masculine voice is important to the accuracy of women's memory and subsequent choice of mate. Women are very sensitive to the pitch of a voice and will remember a deep voice above higher tones。
  The pitch of a voice is also very important to women looking for a long-term partner. When they come to evaluate potential partners, they use it to assess genetic 1 quality as well as behavioral traits such as antisocial behavior and lack of emotional warmth。
  In the first experiment, 45 women were initially 2 shown an image of a single object while listening to the name of the object spoken either by a high or low pitch male or female manipulated voice。
  They were then shown two similar but not identical versions of the object and asked to identify the one they had seen earlier. The women were also asked which voice they preferred。
  In the second experiment, the researchers used real male and female voices to test how 46 new women rated the voices and how they scored on object memory。
  In both cases, the authors found that women had a strong preference for the low pitch male voice and remembered objects more accurately 3 when they have been introduced by the deep male voice。
  Lead researcher Dr David Smith concludes: "Our findings demonstrate that women's memory is enhanced by lower pitch male voices, compared with the less attractive raised pitch male voices."
  The research is published in Springer's journal, Memory and Cognition。
  据英国《每日邮报》9月13日报道,科学家称,拥有像歌手巴里-怀特或演员詹姆斯-厄尔-琼斯一样嗓音的男性更易在追求异性的竞技中占领优势地位,因为女性会对男性的低沉嗓音记忆深刻。
