But a recent research has found that it can promote negative emotions, too.

“Quite a number of studies have shown it’s actually not that simple,” said Andrew Kemp of the University of Sydney, who co-wrote the paper with his colleague Adam Guastella.

Recent studies have found that people who were given oxytocin, then played a game of chance with a fake opponent, had more envy and gloating. These are also both social emotions, but they’re negative.

“It kind of rocked the research world a little bit,” added Kemp.

That led some researchers to think that oxytocin promotes social emotions in general, both negative and positive.

But Kemp and Guastella think oxytocin’s role is slightly different. Rather than supporting all social emotions, they thought it plays a role in promoting what psychologists call approach-related emotions. These are emotions that have to do with wanting something, as opposed to shrinking away.

“If you look at the Oxford English Dictionary for envy, it says that the definition of envy is to wish oneself on a level with another, in happiness or with the possession of something desirable,” said Kemp.

“It’s an approach-related emotion: I want what you have,” added Kemp.

Gloating is also about approach, he said; people who are gloating are happy-a positive, approach-related emotion-about having more than their opponent and about that person’s misfortune.

The study has been published in the Current Directions in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science. (ANI)

<![CDATA[Primate pheromones condition male sexual arousal]]> http://pherotruth.com/Thread-Primate-pheromones-condition-male-sexual-arousal Sun, 31 Oct 2010 18:05:32 +0000 http://pherotruth.com/Thread-Primate-pheromones-condition-male-sexual-arousal
Conditioned sexual arousal in a non-human primate

Pheromones, by definition, effect hormones that affect behavior. I don't think most people would argue that pheromones are causing the arousal, because -- in this case -- the abstract mentions the hormone response. Obviously, some people are more reserved with their use of the term: pheromones. Clearly, it comes down to how you define the term pheromones, and what you expect to observe as a response. But it should also become clear that some people do not want to extend the original definition of pheromones (as used for insects) to other species in cases where behavior is not quite so dependent on chemical signals from others.

Work by me, James V. Kohl, with colleagues LCK and HH, has shown that the mixture of chemicals in Scent of Eros increases flirtatious behavior and ratings of attraction when these chemicals are worn by a man who interacts with individual women during a 15-minute social construct. They didn't check for any hormone response, but the mixture's affect on hormone-associated behavior is probably the first real demonstration that human pheromones (i.e., as originally defined) exist, and also that the behavioral change in women is conditioned to occur in response to the chemicals we used. Once this conditioning has occurred, the pheromones are no longer required, although they can -- in other species -- elicit the conditioned response. The study linked above is the first demonstration of a conditioned response in another primate species.

Claims by others who may think they have discovered human pheromones, should include:

1. information about the mixture used (because pheromones are typically found in mixtures),

2. excuses for not using a study design that was typical of human social interaction, which is often brief. (Reports that Athena pheromones are effective in 74% in 8 weeks do not indicate human pheromones are involved.) See, for example: Do perfume additives termed human pheromones warrant being termed pheromones?

3. excuses for using a supraphysiological amount of any chemical suspected of having a pheromonal effect on hormones or affect on behavior. See for review: Human Pheromones: What’s Purported, What’s Supported.

Some researchers and marketers continue to hope consumers will gradually become better informed and make purchases, if any, based on science rather than on vague claims.

#6 Pheromone prevents inbreeding

The darcin protein, a pheromone present in the urine of male mice, appears to cause females to become attracted to other odorant molecules present in the urine of dominant males, but not in closely related males, providing insight into how animals avoid inbreeding.
