Flirtation as opposed to friendliness, the research found, signals self-interest and competitiveness. "Feminine Charm: An Experimental Analysis of its Costs and Benefits in Negotiations," was written by Laura Kray (kray[at]haas.berkeley.edu) and will appear in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin in October 2012.
