It shows mean attractiveness and trustworthiness ratings of three gaze conditions in two scene types: two average attractive faces (equal attractiveness scene), and one highly and one less attractive face (different attractive faces). Bold face indicates significant differences revealed by ANOVA. Asterisk indicates highly attractive faces in scenes of different levels if facial attractiveness.

Highly attractive face; bold face, statistically significant (p < 0.05); ηp2, effect size.
