SOURCE 3 Intrоductiоn In this study, reseаrchers аsked if knоwing which foods а stranger enjoys changes our perception of that stranger’s personality. For example, do we perceive people who like spicy foods as having different personality characteristics from those who like sour foods? Participants Eighty-five college students participated, most of whom were female (78% female; 22% male3). The participants’ average age was 19.51 years. The researchers did not report any additional race/ethnicity data beyond national origin. Method Participants were presented with 20 different black-and-white images of people’s faces (10 men’s faces and 10 women’s faces) all with neutral facial expressions. Each participant viewed the same 20 images. The images were presented to participants on a computer screen. Each image was randomly associated with a statement that expressed the person’s preference for sweet, bitter, sour, or spicy foods (e.g., “I like chili pepper”). The statement appeared for just over one second. After the food statement disappeared from the computer display, participants were asked to evaluate how likely the person depicted in the image was to be irritable using a 6-point Likert scale, with higher scores indicating greater perceived irritability. Results and Discussion The results showed that irritability attributed to strangers in the images depended on the taste preferences the strangers were associated with. The means and standard deviations for taste preferences attributed to irritability are presented in the table.
