Abstract
White and Black observers who had negative implicit bias or lacked experience towards the other race showed overall low trustworthiness ratings for other-race faces. However, observers were able to judge relative trustworthiness of individual faces from the other race similarly, regardless of implicit bias or experience towards the other race.
