Abstract	The effects of physiognomy and skin tone on perceived likelihood of guilt and length of sentencing were examined in the current study. One hundred-forty undergraduates from the University of WI--La Crosse participated in this 2x2 factorial design. Unexpectedly, photographs with European skin tone were sentenced to more years and were perceived to be more guilty than their African American counterparts. There was no effect of physiognomy on perceived likelihood of guilt or on sentencing.
