面孔可信度评价对人际信任和合作行为有着重要影响。以往研究发现面部特征、背景环境等附加信息能够通过自下而上、自上而下两种方式调节人们对他人面孔可信度的评价，但两种调节因素的起效和失效机制尚不清晰。围绕“自下而上和自上而下两类因素如何调节面孔可信度评价”这一核心问题，申请人前期的研究发现了以自上而下因素为主导的调节作用，并据此提出“经验迁移假说”。基于此，本项目将开展以下三个研究：（1）探索自下而上与自上而下两类调节因素作用的认知机制，验证经验迁移对面孔可信度评价的调节作用；（2）调节效果上，从线索相似、信任关联、线索对比三个不同角度，探讨经验迁移的边界条件；（3）调节过程上，结合脑成像技术，探索调节方向的影响，阐明面孔可信度评价调节的神经机制。本项目对于完善面孔评价理论，深化理解人际信任的调控机制具有重要的理论意义，并为日常生活中如何迁移以往经验，营造更好的人际关系提供理论和实证依据。

The impression of trustworthiness based on facial appearance plays an important role in interpersonal trust and cooperative behavior. Previous research indicated that a variety of additional information (e.g., facial features, context) could affect facial judgments by both bottom-up and top-down processes. However, the mechanism of the two adjustment factors is still unclear. The applicant’s previous behavioral studies found that the top-down process is dominant when both approaches work together. Based on previous findings, the current research proposes the “experience transfer hypothesis.” Thus, the current research aims to explore how two types of factors regulate facial trustworthiness through both bottom-up and top-down processes. Study 1 was designed to investigate the cognitive mechanisms of bottom-up and top-down adjustments on facial trustworthiness through experience transfer across visual cues. Study 2 was designed to explore the boundary conditions of the experience transfer effect from three aspects: the similarity of visual cues, the correlation between visual cues and the tendency to trust, the contrast effect of different visual cues. We will use neuroimaging techniques in Study 3 to explore the underlying neural mechanisms of different adjustment direction of facial trustworthiness evaluation. This project will improve the theory of facial evaluation, and deepen our understanding of how interpersonal trust builds, which has important scientific significance. Moreover, the findings of the project will provide new ideas and empirical evidence for the improvement of interpersonal relations in everyday life by transferring prior experience.
