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
a,b,c

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.
