    In a previous study, it was observed that women value men's interest in infants as a desirable trait for more stable long-term relationships. Pictures of 16 male volunteers were shown to 42 female undergraduates, who were asked to rate the attractiveness by a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and to state which kind of relationship they could imagine to have with each presented man: long-term partnership date sex affair none of that. Additionally, by using a VAS, the female participants were asked to rate their desire to have a child in the next five years. Six of the 16 men were shown either alone or together with an infant, whereas the other ten men always were presented alone.The female subjects rated the men significantly more attractive when presented with an infant, and have chosen significantly more often a long-term-relationship when the men were presented with a child. Nevertheless, no significant correlation could be observed between the increased attractiveness with an infant and the desire of the female subjects to have a child.

    Studies with EEG monitoring have observed implicit memory priming during light and deep anesthesia with and without surgical stimulation. An EEG controlled fMRI study could demonstrate information processing during deep slow wave sleep, however, no EEG-controlled study have observed implicit memory priming during sleep. It was hypothesized that memory priming occurs under different combinations of anesthesia and surgery and during deep slow wave sleep. Forty gynecological patients were included in an anesthesia study, ten volunteer subjects in a sleep study. Each participant was exposed to 60 of 120 nouns in a double-blind randomized design. In the anesthesia study, in each case 12 nouns were presented during (1)intubation, (2)skin incision, (3)deep anesthesia during surgery, (4)moderate anesthesia during surgery, and during (5)light anesthesia. In the sleep study, all 60 nouns were presented during deep slow wave sleep. The depth of anesthesia or sleep was defined by the EEG monitor Narcotrend. No explicit memories were observed. A word-stem completion test revealed significant implicit memory priming only for the condition of light anesthesia (P<0.01), however, not for the other four conditions or for slow wave sleep. Implicit memory priming has been shown to be a small but persistent phenomenon during anesthesia, however, not during sleep.

    It is hypothesized that the aromatherapy has a positive effect in the treatment of diseases. In a previous study, a relaxing effect of rosmarin and lavender could be observed as well as a positive effect of lavender on the performance in a math task.After announcement of a social Stressor (oral presentation) 42 students were assigned randomized to an experimental condition with aroma of lavender (N=20) or without aroma (N=22). The temporary condition of state anxiety and the more general and long-standing quality of trait anxiety were measured with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI X1 and X2).A difference could be observed between the two experimental groups for the state anxiety, however, also for the trait anxiety. Therefore, the difference in the state anxiety could not be considered as an effect of the experimental design. When considered the difference between the values in the STAI X1 and in the STAI X2, no significant difference occurred between the two experimental groups.In conclusion, the selected experimental design failed to demonstrate an effect of the aroma lavender on the reduction of stress.
