Psychologists believe that you can perceive how trustworthy someone is by their facial width ratio. With two case studies, they found that people with wider faces tend to be less trustworthy while people with thinner faces are said to be more trustworthy.
Do you think you can base the trustworthiness of someone on just a glance at their face?

I could see how this experiment came true since many people today are very stereotypical when they first meet new people but I personally don't believe this is true. First it's not right to judge someone by thier looks and secondly, personality has nothing to do with facal features. You may think someone is very normal until you get to know them and find out that they may look normal but act kinda weird. Vic versa, someone may look weird but they could be the nices person you hvae ever meet.

The idea that you can know if you can trust someone by how they look is untrue. Even if it was possible to tell who to trust by looking at them, then what would you compare it to. The idea that you can see a mental characteristic because of something physical is very unlikely and also physically impossible
I don't think you can base the trustworthiness of someone on just a glance at their face because a person's facil features do not represent their personality. For example someone may look trutworthy, but you don't know this until you really get to know their personality. Personality is not something you tell by looking at a person's face. You have to know that person very well inorder to know their personality.

I do not believe that someone’s facial width ratio can determine how trustworthy a person is. To me how trustworthy someone is should be determined by their character and personality. Not by their looks.
