When changes over time are gradual (as during silvicultural conversion of even-aged, second-growth forests to an uneven-aged condition) and resources are limited, power analysis helps allocate sampling effort to maximize the probability of detecting small effect sizes.
Given that the motivational salience of attractive opposite-sex faces is likely to be a proxy for willingness to allocate mating effort to attractive potential mates [ 6], our results complement recent work suggesting that own-sex-biased sex ratios increase the amount of financial resources men invest in potential mates [ 5].
