人们可以（在某种程度上）从社交伙伴的面部特征中检测出可信赖性，而在这项任务中表现不佳的人群更有可能受到虐待。在这里，我们关注的情况下，青少年作出决定是否信任一个未知的成年人。13-18岁的青少年（N = 540）玩了一个信任游戏，在这个游戏中，他们根据照片决定是否信任未知的成年人。我们发现，随着年龄的增长，信任决策变得越来越准确，从13岁的小效应量到18岁的2.5倍大的效应量。我们认为这一结果的影响，亲社会性的发展和发展的可信度检测从面孔的潜在机制。(C)2015 Elsevier B. V.版权所有。
People can (to some extent) detect trustworthiness from the facial features of social partners, and populations which underperform at this task are at a greater risk of abuse. Here we focus on situations in which adolescents make a decision whether to trust an unknown adult. Adolescents aged 13-18 (N = 540) played a trust game, in which they made decisions whether to trust unknown adults based on their picture. We show that trusting decisions become increasingly accurate with age, from a small effect size at age 13 to an effect size 2.5 times larger at age 18. We consider the implications of this result for the development of prosociality and the possible mechanisms underlying the development of trustworthiness detection from faces. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
