Abstract:

In this study of 333 participants, we investigated how racial stereotypes and facial attractiveness impact moral evaluations in healthcare. We use images of faces with different levels of attractiveness in moral dilemma scenarios, performing statistical analyzes such as ANOVA and ANCOVA to examine these complex interactions. We found that physical attractiveness positively influences moral evaluations only in low moral conflict scenarios, and does not apply to high conflict or impersonal situations. The relationship between self-declared skin color and participants\' sex was only confirmed in a specific scenario, highlighting the complexity of these influences. Hypotheses three and four, which suggested that participants\' racial and moral identity would suppress the effects of racial stereotypes and facial attractiveness, were not confirmed. However, it was observed that the ethnic profile of the faces, together with the participants\' motivation to control prejudices, positively influenced moral evaluations. These results are interpreted in light of theories on interpersonal attraction, moral judgment, and intergroup relations, providing important insights into the complex dynamics that shape moral evaluations in healthcare.
