Progression of interpreting perception amongst ourselves and others relates to physical traits (looks/attractiveness) and non-physical traits (intelligence/information). Leaning solely on physical traits creates a biased "person perception stereotyping" view, which leads to assume the subject being assessed also have high non-physical traits. Such implication need to be avoided, as it suggests that, though attraction is correlated to non-physical traits, knowing or being familiar with a person can greatly reduce the stereotyping and ultimately lead to the influence of non-physical traits to interpret on perceptions. The apprentice study gives a pre-task where group members work together. This gives members more information about each other and we see how it correlates between non-physical traits to being picked as the apprentice.
             When viewing someone for the first time we use our sense of perception to have a general idea of a stranger. It is understood that this is influenced by physical traits such as looks and youth shown by (Kniffin & Wilson 2004). To this extent, humans tend to judge, that because of their physical attractiveness, it must lead to other positive factors of that same person, Such as status and familiarity or otherwise known as the non-physical trait.
             Implications occur, as biased views are perceived about a stranger. It leads to hypothesis that there would be a correlation between the variables of physical and non-physical attraction. Such studies by Dion and associates (1972) confirms that subjects indeed favour such non-physical traits when given photographs to judge that was rated high in physical attractiveness. This type of behaviour is called the halo effect.
             The assumption is generally known as the 'Physical Attractiveness Stereotype". Researchers such as Eagly et al (1991) suggest as information and clarity increases about the stranger, there become more familiar and know that p...
