Accent affects how trustworthy someone seems.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
4 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that accent affects how trustworthy someone seems?

Unclear. Several sources indicate that accent influences how listeners evaluate or form attitudes about speakers, including in professional and hiring contexts, but none directly measures perceived trustworthiness. The evidence covers related evaluative effects only in part.
