Social Stimulus Perception and Self-Evaluation: Effects of Menstrual Cycle Phase.

Alagna, Sheryle W.; Hamilton, Jean A.

Psychology of Women Quarterly, v10 n4 p327-38 Dec 1986

Women in different phases of the menstrual cycle were compared to men in their responses to a social interaction stimulus: a videotape depicting a female nurse interacting with a hospitalized patient. Sex differences and cycle-phase differences were found for both affective and cognitive dimensions. Premenstrual women differed from other women, but not from men, in their affective ratings.
