The study was set to see the differences of visuals and achieved that . However it did not examine visuals as an element that affects both genders differently. It just says how different it is and that in itself could be what separates the two not to say they are different without it if studied in the bigger picture .
Visuals are just one of the engaging factors and sure there is a difference how it affects maen VS. women.

The study was to determine
the effect of jealousy on women.
NOT the effect of visuals on men vs women.
Whether the men viewed visuals or some other jealousy inducing method e.g. the question sets that Miller lite is currently running in tis commercials, with the GF questioning her BF about what he likes. Or if the women were asked to perform some other task e.g. the measuring the time or number of tries to place differnet shaped objects in the same shaped cut-out, the test results however they came out, would have been equally valid.
"the females were asked how uneasy they felt about their partner rating other women's attractiveness"
"emotion-induced blindness" emerged only during the time that the male partner was rating other women, helping rule out baseline differences in performance among the women. "
"In these experiments, it was always the women who searched for a target. The researchers don't yet know what will happen when the roles are reversed and men's jealousy is tested."
