There were complicated and opposite effects of picture gender, and interactions of picture gender by picture emotion for the emotion and gender tasks (all p’s < 0.05). For the emotion task, RTs were faster for female faces vs. male faces for positive and negative emotions, but slower for female faces vs. male faces for neutral emotion faces (F(1, 95) = 4.96, p = 0.028). The results were the opposite for the gender task (F(1, 95) = 6.2, p = 0.015) (Figure 5).
