Riechen Frauen anders als Männer?

  • Chapter
Gehirn und Geschlecht

Auszug

Die Forschung zu menschlichen Wahrnehmungsleistungen hat den chemischen Sinnen Geschmack und Geruch im Vergleich zum Gehör, zum Gesichts- und Tastsinn bislang verhältnismäßig wenig Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet. In den letzten Jahren sind jedoch einige Publikationen zum Geruchssinn erschienen und haben diesem Mangel etwas abgeholfen. Verschiedene Untersuchungen beschäftigten sich mit physiologischen, psychologischen und behavioralen Aspekten. Typisch für die Geruchswahrnehmung sind große interindividuelle Unterschiede in der Reaktion auf Duftstoffe, zu denen verschiedene Faktoren beitragen. Die wichtigsten sind Alter und Geschlecht. Wie man inzwischen weiß, verändern sich die olfaktorischen Fähigkeiten mit zunehmendem Alter. Geschlechtsunterschiede bei olfaktorischen Fähigkeiten stellen dagegen ein komplexeres, verwirrenderes Feld mit mehr ungeklärten Aspekten dar (Bran u. Millot 2001). Die Forschung zu Geschlechtsunterschieden bei sensorischen Funktionen hat deren Beiträge zu interindividuellen Unterschieden betont (Velle 1992).
