Resumo(s)
Previous research has shown that spontaneous trait inferences (STI) made from behaviors are
bound to actor’s faces. Additionally, research has shown that inferred traits can also become
associated with the faces of communicators of the behaviors through spontaneous trait
transference (STT). In this study, we replaced the actors’ pictures by actors’ names, in order to
investigate whether names of actors and communicators (e.g., Carl Smith) can also become
attached to inferred traits. Under these conditions, evidence of STIs was obtained, but not of
STTs. These results show that the association between traits and communicators (STT) is highly
dependent on the visual salience of the communicator. In contrast, STIs occur even when actors
are not visually salient. Results are discussed in terms of the processes underlying STIs and
STTs.
