Fluctuating Asymmetry and Sexual Dimorphism in Human Facial Morphology: A Multi-Variate Study
(1) Background: Fluctuating asymmetry is often used as an indicator of developmental instability, and is proposed as a signal of genetic quality. The display of prominent masculine phenotypic features, which are a direct result of high androgen levels, is also believed to be a sign of genetic qualit...
