Fig. 2

Time was associated with an increase of ratings of perceived trustworthiness displays in both the National Portrait Gallery (a data are aggregated by decade; regression line corresponds to the analysis on individual portraits) and the Web Gallery of Art (b)—data are aggregated country and by decades; regression line corresponds to the analysis on individual portraits). Increased GDP per capita predicted increased ratings of perceived trustworthiness displays better than time only-models both in the National Portrait Gallery (c data are aggregated by GDP; regression line corresponds to the analysis on individual portraits) and the Web Gallery of Art (d data are aggregated by country and GDP; regression line correspond to the analysis on individual portraits). Data are represented as mean values, error bars represent standard error to the means, the red line corresponds to the estimated effect in the regression adjusting for gender, age (for the National Portrait Gallery only) and perceived dominance, the shaded area represents the standard error to the mean of these effects. Source data are provided as raw data and scripts on the online depository.
