High testosterone was associated with a distinct interpersonal style that included: attachment-related avoidance, dominance, and disconnectedness (cold and distant from others). High testosterone was also associated with loneliness
New research suggests that hormones such as testosterone and cortisol may be associated with closeness in social relationships.
The study of 166 college students, published in the journal Psychoneuroendocrinology, found that people with relatively lower cortisol and testosterone levels were more likely to feel closer to a stranger they had a conversation with. Higher testosterone was associated with lower closeness.
