¡¾ÌâÄ¿¡¿When there are some strangers in front of us, which of them will we trust?
According to a new study in the online PLOS One, people make their decisions to trust others largely based on their faces£®Your appearance can do a lot for you, especially if you are in the financial industry£®The more trustworthy you look, the more likely people will buy what you¡¯re selling£®
Researchers from Britain¡¯s University of Warwick Business School, University College London, and Dartmouth College, US, did a number of experiments£®
The research team used computer software to make 40 faces, from the least to the most trustworthy-looking£®
The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isn¡¯t as trustworthy comes from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy, even when the face is at rest£®However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted£®
Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest the money for them£®Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces, and asked the participants again whom they trusted£®
The results showed that even if they got different information, the participants didn¡¯t change their choices£®They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces£®
Chris Olivola, one of the study¡¯s authors, said in the University of Warwick¡¯s press release: ¡°It seems we are still willing to go with our own instincts about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them£®The temptation to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist£®¡±
