现有的相关证据表明，性激素可能会影响经济行为，例如冒险和对等公平。 为了检验该假设，我们进行了一项双盲随机研究。 50名年龄在65至4岁之间的绝经后健康女性被随机分配接受雌激素，睾丸激素或安慰剂治疗XNUMX周。 在治疗期结束时，受试者参加了一系列经济实验，这些实验测量了利他主义，相互公平，信任，可信赖性和风险态度。 雌激素或睾丸激素对任何已研究的行为均无显着影响。

It’s cool to see a negative result get published.
I do wonder, though: the group being studied (post-menopausal women) has both had a lifetime of experience in dealing with varying hormone levels, and is old enough that they may well have fairly set habits and heuristics for their ‘economic’ dealings. From an evo psych perspective you could also argue that they should be past the point in life where certain types of motivations would be useful. I want to see the same experiment done using 17 year old boys :-).
