“No, no, no, maybe, no, no, YES, no, maybe, yes, no . . .” Tori was using her smartphone to rapidly flip through images on a social media dating app. “This one for sure . . . that one, no chance.” “What are you doing?” asked her friend Jade. “Finding a boyfriend,” Tori replied. “I can tell what kind of person these guys are almost instantaneously.” What research conclusions apply to Tori’s approach to dating?

A) People take a long time to form an impression of someone else; Tories approach to finding a boyfriend has little basis in the reality of how person perception works.
B) People’s quick first impressions of someone are usually accurate; upon further interaction, these first impressions generally match well with a target’s own self-perceptions.
C) First impressions based on writing samples have a greater impact on person perception than do first impressions based on facial images.
D) People swiftly form impressions of others based on minimal information; although these impressions are consistent across raters, they do not necessarily match the target person’s self-perceptions.
