Dion、Berscheid 和 Walster（1972）在他们的开创性文章中将有吸引力的人的积极特征归因于“美丽就是好的”刻板印象。此后的刻板印象文献为对有吸引力和不有吸引力的人的区别判断和对待提供了广泛的证据，但没有表明有吸引力是优点还是不有吸引力是缺点。两项研究通过比较对中、低、中、高吸引力面孔的积极和消极属性的判断，调查了吸引力刻板印象的方向。总的来说，成人（实验 1）和儿童（实验 2）的结果表明，大多数情况下，缺乏吸引力是一种劣势，这与消极偏见一致（例如，Rozin & Royzrnan，2001），但与“美丽就是好”的格言相反。
Dion, Berscheid, and Walster (1972), in their seminal article, labeled the attribution of positive characteristics to attractive people the "beauty-is-good" stereotype. The stereotyping literature since then provides extensive evidence for the differential judgment and treatment of attractive versus unattractive people, but does not indicate whether it is an advantage to be attractive or a disadvantage to be unattractive. Two studies investigated the direction of attractiveness stereotyping by comparing judgments of positive and negative attributes for medium vs. low and medium vs. high attractive faces. Taken together, results for adults (Experiment 1) and children (Experiment 2) suggest that most often, unattractiveness is a disadvantage, consistent with negativity bias (e.g., Rozin & Royzrnan, 2001), but contrary to the "beauty-is-good" aphorism.
