面孔的可信度判断在社交互动中发挥着重要作用。尽管之前的研究表明面部判断可以通过一些附加信息（例如行为历史）来调节，但很少有研究关注人际距离对面部可信度判断的影响。人际距离是人际关系和动机的重要指标。当前的研究旨在检验有或没有物理距离提示（图像大小）的想象的人际距离是否可以调节面部可信度判断。在一系列四项实验中，当前的研究表明，随着想象中的人际距离的增加，面孔被认为更值得信赖。更重要的是，它首次表明想象中的人际距离对面部评估的影响比图像大小更大。
Trustworthiness judgments of faces play an important role in social interactions. Although previous studies indicate facial judgments can be modulated by some additional information (such as behavioral history), few studies have paid attention to the effect of interpersonal distance on trustworthiness judgments of faces. Interpersonal distance is a critical proxy of interpersonal relationship and motivation. The current study aimed to examine whether imagined interpersonal distance with or without a physical distance cue (image size) could modulate facial trustworthiness judgments. In a series of four experiments, the current study shows that faces are judged as more trustworthy as the imagined interpersonal distance increases. More importantly, it is the first to show that imagined interpersonal distance has a larger effect on facial evaluations than does image size.
