Abstract:
Humans make lasting impressions of others based on physical appearance. While this is often benign, appearance can also signal membership in various social groups. Each of these groups may be associated with stereotypes, which can lead people to act in discriminatory ways. In this dissertation, I explore the intersection of physical attractiveness and cues of ethno-religious identity related to three primary outcomes: wage setting, hiring, and trustworthiness perceptions. By studying the effects of appearance at the level of interpersonal beliefs, perceptions, and expectations, this dissertation aims to identify possible mechanisms that drive group-level inequalities.
