Table 2. Linear regression with male rater characteristics considered as predictors of rater preferences for female target body traits (VHI and WHR).

	VHI Preference Peak (Quadratic Function Vertex), n = 49			WHR Preference (Slope of WHR-Attractiveness Function), n = 51
Rater Characteristic	Beta	t	Sig	Beta	t	Sig
VHIdev	.076	.537	n.s.	.129	.906	n.s.
WCR	−.159	−1.157	n.s.	−.151	−1.094	n.s.
SP Attractiveness	−.354	−2.535	p<0.05	−.222	−1.559	n.s.
SOI-R	−.306	−2.307	p<0.05	−.326	−2.420	p<0.05

Notes: Analyses examine predictors of mean attractiveness preferences (mean of target long-term and short-term relationship attractiveness). WHR = Waist-hip ratio; WCR = Waist-chest ratio; VHI = Volume-height index; VHI_dev = absolute deviation from sex-specific optimal VHI (VHI_dev =|VHI−VHI_opt|); SP Attractiveness = self-perceived attractiveness; SOI-R = Sociosexuality Orientation Inventory (revised). Values of p are two-tailed. Overall model statistics: VHI Preference Peak - R² = .259, F(4,44) = 3.85, p<0.01; WHR Preference Strength -; R² = .208, F(4,46) = 3.02, p<0.05. All tolerances >.85 and variance inflation factors (VIF) <1.2 so multicollinearity is not an issue.
