Most past work on trustworthiness perception has focused on the structural features of the human face. The present study investigates the interplay of dynamic information from two channels – the face and the voice. By systematically varying the level of trustworthiness in each channel, 49 participants were presented with either facial or vocal information, or the combination of both, and made e...

In the heterogeneous network, trustworthiness of the entity can help other entities to decide whether or not to have a transaction with it. The feedback data used to evaluate trustworthiness always comes from different entities in different system and is expressed in all kinds of forms. This may be easy for entity to express their trustworthiness, but it will increase difficulties of evaluation...

We tested whether eye color influences perception of trustworthiness. Facial photographs of 40 female and 40 male students were rated for perceived trustworthiness. Eye color had a significant effect, the brown-eyed faces being perceived as more trustworthy than the blue-eyed ones. Geometric morphometrics, however, revealed significant correlations between eye color and face shape. Thus, face s...

The traditional trustworthiness evaluation of running software is inaccurate and incomplete because each component is as an independent unit during reliability evaluation. According to the drawbacks of traditional models, this paper proposed a trustworthiness evaluation approach of component-based software based on level. The trustworthy behavior trace diagram of componentbased software was pre...

It is easy enough to assert the trustworthiness or otherwise of a digital record, but it is far more difficult to present an objective basis for that assertion. A number of recent research efforts have focused on the trustworthiness of a digital record while paying scant attention to the record’s evidential value as a measure of and a basis for the assessment of its trustworthiness. In this wor...

Agent-based technology could revolutionize the manner by which distributed computation is performed. The fact that the information returned by an agent to the agent owner cannot be validated by the owner is impeding the widespread adoption of agent-based computing. Our paper addresses this concern by proposing a new type of software assertion to increase observability by providing agent owner's...

It is widely assumed among psychologists that people spontaneously form trustworthiness impressions of newly encountered people from their facial appearance. However, most existing studies directly or indirectly induced an impression formation goal, which means that the existing empirical support for spontaneous facial trustworthiness impressions remains insufficient. In particular, it remains ...
