Past, Present, and Future of Human Chemical Communication Research
Although chemical signaling is an essential mode of communication in most vertebrates, it has long been viewed as having negligible effects in humans. However, a growing body of evidence shows that the sense of smell affects human behavior in social contexts ranging from affiliation and parenting to disease avoidance and social threat. This article aims to (a) introduce research on human chemical communication in the historical context of the beh…
Cross-modal associations of human body odour attractiveness with facial and vocal attractiveness provide little support for the backup signals hypothesis: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Blindness, But Not HMHA Anosmia, Predicts Loneliness: A Psychophysical Study
Olfactory deficits can play a detrimental role in everyday social functioning. Perception of 3-hydroxy-3-methylhexanoic acid (HMHA)—a body odor component—could also be linked to this research area. However, no study so far has addressed the problem of HMHA perception in the context of the previously reported relationship between olfactory abilities and social difficulties. Here, we tested whether HMHA-specific anosmia predicted loneliness underst…
The smell of cooperativeness: Do human body odours advertise cooperative behaviours
Several physical features influence the perception of how cooperative a potential partner is. While previous work focused on face and voice, it remains unknown whether body odours influence judgements of cooperativeness and if odour-based judgements are accurate. Here, we first collected axillary odours of cooperative and uncooperative male donors through a public good game and used them as olfactory stimuli in a series of tasks examining whether…
Contribution de l'anthropologie sensorielle à l'étude du Covid-19
En réponse à la pandémie COVID-19, de nombreux gouvernements ont pris des mesures sans précédent pour éviter un engorgement des unités de réanimation. En raison du lourd impact sociétal et économique de ces initiatives, des indicateurs épidémiologiques précis de la propagation de la maladie sont essentiels aux autorités de santé publique. Dans le même temps, la perturbation des perceptions des odeurs et du goût ont été identifiés comme l’un des s…
Cultures enfantines: Universalité et diversité
Le voyageur, parfois dépaysé par l’immersion dans une autre culture, est au contraire aussitôt en terrain familier en observant un groupe d’enfants qui jouent. Pour autant, se souvient-il nécessairement des jeux de tape-mains qu’il pratiquait étant petit ? Sait-il si les enfants chantent encore « Am Stram Gram, pic et pic et colégram » quand ils « plouffent » ? Si certaines pratiques enfantines, de la cour de récréation à la rue, sont connues dep…
Affective dimensions of odor perception: A comparison between Swiss, British, and Singaporean populations
Do affective responses to odors vary as a function of culture? To address this question, we developed two self-report scales in the United Kingdom (Liverpool: LEOS) and in Singapore (city of Singapore: SEOS), following the same procedure as used in the past to develop the Geneva Emotion and Odor Scale (GEOS: Chrea, Grandjean, Delplanque et al., 2009). The final scales were obtained by a three-step reduction of an initial pool of 480 affective ter…
