60 male undergraduates read an essay supposedly written by a female college freshman. They then evaluated the quality of the essay and the ability of its writer on several dimensions. By means of a photo attached to the essay, 20 Ss were led to believe that the writer was physically attractive and 20 that she was unattractive. The remaining Ss read the essay without any information about the writer's appearance. 30 Ss read a version of the essay that was well written while the other Ss read a version that was poorly written. Significant main effects for essay quality and writer attractiveness were predicted and obtained. Ss who read the good essay evaluated the writer and her work more favorably that Ss who read the poor essay. Ss also evaluated the writer and her work most favorably when she was attractive, least when she was unattractive, and intermediately when her appearance was unknown. The impact of the writer's attractiveness on the evaluation of her and her work was most pronounced when the" objective" quality of her work was relatively poor.(15 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
