- Found everything empirical on evil faces. Surprisingly large amount of studies. https://academic.oup.com/scan/article/12/4/695/2731989

Here's some of what I have on low trust faces:
- The 'default' brain setting seems to be to distrust:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0304394019306044
- Facial resemblance enhances trust: https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/abs/10.1098/rspb.2002.2034
- Wider faced men are seen as less trustworthy (seemingly justifiably so):https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797610362647
- People with Borderline Personality Disorder tend to judge faces as less trustworthy than others:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0165178113000085
- Untrustworthy looking men are more likely to receive harsher criminal sentences: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0956797615590992 Altmark22 (talk) 01:21, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
- Found some studies on psychopathy and faces https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5788036/

The general gist is psychopaths (evil people) are better at mimicking (hiding) their true emotions which may be why in our Physiognomy experiments they are harder to read. With of course males being much more psychopathic than females. Mikey (talk) 02:18, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
