The groups injected with epinastine and mianserin exhibited significantly increased preferences for the control odor (and thus significantly decreased preference for the punished odor), the levels of preferences being as high as that of the saline-injected control group.
In summary, the benefits of a cyclic shift in preferences may be two-fold: maximising preferences for good genes to pass on to offspring (indirect benefits) when conception is likely, and increasing preferences for traits that signal parental investment (direct benefits) on days that reflect the hormone profile of pregnancy, and correspond with a low chance of conception.
