Abstract

ABSTRACT We all occasionally need the help of others whom we do not know well. In four studies, we studied the influence of the facial appearance of both the potential helper and the help seeker on such a decision. In three studies (1a-1c), across different help domains, participants rated a person with submissive facial appearance as more likely to help. This was mediated via the perception of the submissive person as caring and helpful. The notion that submissive individuals will be perceived as more likely to help when a dominant person asks was only supported in the context of financial help. The preference for a submissive potential helper was also found when participant had to choose a helper for themselves (Study 2). (120 words)

救救我欧比旺:面部优势对助人认知的影响

我们偶尔都需要不太熟悉的人的帮助。在四项研究中，我们研究了潜在帮助者和寻求帮助者的面部外貌对这一决定的影响。在三项研究(1a-1c)中，在不同的帮助领域，参与者认为面部表情顺从的人更有可能提供帮助。这是通过认为顺从的人关心和乐于助人来调解的。当主导者提出要求时，顺从的个体会被认为更有可能提供帮助，这一观点仅在经济帮助的背景下得到了支持。当参与者为自己选择一个帮手时，也发现他们更倾向于选择一个顺从的潜在帮手(研究2)。
