Abstract

Over the past 10 years, Oosterhof and Todorov’s valence–dominance model has emerged as the most prominent account of how people evaluate faces on social dimensions. In this model, two dimensions (valence and dominance) underpin social judgements of faces. Because this model has primarily been developed and tested in Western regions, it is unclear whether these findings apply to other regions. We addressed this question by replicating Oosterhof and Todorov’s methodology across 11 world regions, 41 countries and 11,570 participants. When we used Oosterhof and Todorov’s original analysis strategy, the valence–dominance model generalized across regions. When we used an alternative methodology to allow for correlated dimensions, we observed much less generalization. Collectively, these results suggest that, while the valence–dominance model generalizes very well across regions when dimensions are forced to be orthogonal, regional differences are revealed when we use different extraction methods and correlate and rotate the dimension reduction solution.

社会感知的效价-主导模型适用于哪些世界区域？

摘要

在过去的 10 年里，Oosterhof 和 Todorov 的配价-优势模型已经成为人们如何在社会维度上评估面孔的最突出的解释。在这个模型中，两个维度（效价和优势）支持面孔的社会判断。由于该模型主要是在西部地区开发和测试的，因此尚不清楚这些发现是否适用于其他地区。我们通过在 11 个世界地区、41 个国家和 11,570 名参与者中复制 Oosterhof 和 Todorov 的方法来解决这个问题。当我们使用 Oosterhof 和 Todorov 的原始分析策略时，价-优势模型跨区域推广。当我们使用替代方法来考虑相关维度时，我们观察到的泛化要少得多。总的来说，这些结果表明，
