A total of 157 male and female participants, mostly psychology students at the University of Vienna, were tested. All participants were non-musicians (i.e., less than three years of formal musical training) and not musically active at the time of the experiment. Women confirmed that they were not taking hormonal contraceptives, and were neither pregnant nor breast-feeding. Twenty-nine participants had to be excluded, either due to technical problems during the experiment (n = 11), self-reported homo- or bisexual orientations (n = 11), or extreme mood states prior to the experiment (n = 7) (i.e., scoring 3 interquartile ranges (IQRs) below the first quartile, which suggest extreme negative mood, fatigue and/or disquietude in comparison to other participants in each of the three groups). Furthermore, women reporting an irregular cycle, as well as women who were on days 1–5 of their cycle (n = 16), were excluded to avoid any potential effects of menstruation on ratings.
