"According to a recently-published NYU study, your brain decides how much it trusts a face in about 33 milliseconds, or 1/30th of a second—quicker than an eye can blink. Jonathan Freeman, who was in charge of the study, says that “the brain automatically responds to a face’s trustworthiness before it is even consciously perceived.”
"They study says that prominent cheekbones and high “inner eyebrows” are two of the main trustworthy traits."
"A recent study conducted in China had people judge how trustworthy 8-12 year-old’s faces appeared to be, and found that the more trustworthy the children looked, the more trustworthy the children looked, the more their peers accepted them, and the more, in turn, the children behaved in a kind, trustworthy manner. When children looked trustworthy, other children expected them to be kind, and therefore treated them kindly, which even a year later predicted how trustworthy those children, in turn, acted in class."
