Figure 3. Gender and Response to Disgusting Stimuli.
Panel A presents the mean scores for the self-report disgust scale and panel B presents the mean scores for skin conductance response. The range of both self-reported and physiological disgust sensitivity has been standardized to run from 0 to 1. Mean gender differences occur for self-reported disgust sensitivity (t = 2.85, p<.01, two-tailed test) but not for physiological disgust sensitivity (t = .22, p = .82, two-tailed test).
