being described as average-looking might not sound like much of a compliment, but having a 'typical' face means people trust you more.

lead researcher carmel sofer, from princeton university said: 'face typicality likely indicates familiarity and cultural 2.
'as such, these findings have important implications for understanding social perception, including cross-cultural perceptions and interactions.'
for their study, the researchers created a 'typical' face by digitally combining 92 female faces.
they also created an 'attractive' face by averaging the faces of 12 women who were independently rated as the most beautiful, from a separate set of photos.
the typical face and the attractive face were then 3 together, and from this, the researchers created variations that had differing levels of attractiveness and typicality.
the result was a continuum of faces ranging from least attractive to most attractive, with the most typical face in the middle.
to remove 4 5, only women rated the faces on a nine-point scale for trustworthiness or attractiveness.
after each face was rated on three separate occasions, the results showed a u-shaped relationship between face typicality and trustworthiness.
that is, the closer a face was to the most typical face, the more trustworthy it was considered to be.
