Daniel is in a psychology experiment,where he is shown a bunch of words as stimuli and is supposed to categorize them as "good" or "bad" as quickly as possible.Although he doesn't know it,he is also very briefly (below the threshold of perception)shown an image of an attractive or unattractive face prior to the presentation of each word.What type of face will be associated with the fastest response time for "good" words?

Question

Studies have shown that attractive faces can lead to a faster response time for categorizing stimuli as "good" compared to unattractive faces, due to the positivity bias effect. This effect suggests that we have a subconscious bias towards associating attractive things with positive outcomes, and this can influence our perception and processing of other stimuli presented afterwards. Therefore, it is likely that an attractive face would lead to the fastest response time for "good" words in this experiment.
