    I’m not bothering to open the study again, but from what I remember, the strong cropping was for the AI analysis. For the people, they cropped like in the example.

      Oh, yeah, you’re right. Not cropped. I read that wrong:

      Across the human social perceivers’ studies (Studies 1, 2, and 4A), the facial appearance of the targets in the images consisted of headshots cropped around shoulder height, and included facial accessories such as individuals’ hair, eyeglasses, and any subtle cosmetics they wore. To ensure that the hair is included in the image, facial images were cropped around shoulder height, occasionally including the top of the shirt in the frame, as depicted in Fig. 1. We did not include images of individuals wearing stereotypically recognizable accessories such as religious items.

      So, sometimes articles of clothing and certainly makeup were present.
