TABLE 2.
Viewing time (Mean±st. dev. seconds) by menstrual cycle phase and test session for each session. There were no overall differences between cycle phases for either OC or NC subjects. (Note: the sample for a given cycle phase on each test session is a different group of women since women were tested at all three different cycle phases.
Session 1 | Session 2 | Session 3 | |
---|---|---|---|
OC | |||
Menstrual | 9.73±2.63 a | 4.73±2.04 c | 4.65±1.53 b |
Periovulatory | 5.43±3.23 b | 8.49±6.24 a | 4.81±1.47 c |
Luteal | 4.90±2.18 c | 4.36±2.53 b | 8.77±6.15 a |
NC | |||
Menstrual | 5.85±3.46a | 2.75±1.49 c | 6.96±7.95 b |
Periovulatory | 6.88±5.74 b | 6.07±3.56 a | 2.88±1.10 c |
Luteal | 3.14±1.82 c | 6.85±7.19 b | 4.85±3.54 a |
The same superscripts and types face (e.g. bold, italic, and plain) indicate the response of women starting in a specific menstrual cycle phase at subsequent cycle phases. Thus a indicates the responses of women starting in the menstrual cycle phase at their periovulatory and luteal phases.
