Four studies investigated the importance of objective and subjective attributes to mate selection. This research tested whether perceivers’ objective physical attractiveness influenced how they evaluated the physical attractiveness of others and, if considered, may provide a parsimonious account for matching in mate selection. Study 1 (N=102) demonstrated that ratings of targets’attractiveness decreased as perceivers’ objective physical attractiveness increased. Studies 2 (N=89) and 3 (N =68) revealed that as perceivers’ objective physical attractiveness increased, reductions in expected satisfaction and rejection were mediated by perceivers’ reduced assessments of targets’ attractiveness. Study 4 (N=114) produced patterns of matching by finding that attractive perceivers expected to date more attractive targets while unattractive perceivers expected to date less attractive targets. This research emphasizes the importance of objective physical attractiveness to target evaluations and describes how matching results from the combined influence of objective and subjective attributes.
