Figure 1.
Perspective distortion from distance influences trust (Experiment 1a and Experiment 2).
Histograms show investment difference (far-close) for each face, averaged over all participants. A disproportionately larger number of faces received a positive investment difference (light bars) compared to those receiving a negative investment difference (dark bars).

Summary of experiments.
Figure 2.
Social judgments as a function of perspective distortion (Experiment 3a), verbal information (Experiment 3b), and image size (Experiment 3c).
In each Experiment, ratings were obtained for Trust (solid black bars), Competence (gray bars), and Attractiveness (white bars). The mean Far-Close score over all participants and stimulus faces is shown on the y-axis (with the error bar indicating the 95% confidence interval).
Figure 3.
Additional social judgments from perspective distortion (Experiment 3d–e).
Shown are means and 95% CI for ratings of Heaviness, Age, Distance to Camera (Experiment 3d), Averageness (Experiment 3e).
Figure 4.
The schematic illustrates how the two photographs of a face were taken at two distances simultaneously, and summarizes the post-processing steps to equate the resultant images and generate the stimuli.
