Why are people unwilling to help a black male with a boyish face, yet the other groups all received more help with more neotenous features.

Ignoring the face, according to this study American people tend to perceive black men as more physically threatening that they actually are :The most important qualification to emerge from our findings was that black male faces with neotenous and mature features elicited essentially equal numbers of returns. For these faces, feature manipulations and the impressions they relayed seemed to make no difference. Returns for African-American male faces were not significantly lower or higher than returns for other groups. And because this pattern generalized across countries, it cannot be easily attributed to differences in racial or cultural sensitivities to black faces in Kenya or the US (Anthony, Copper, & Mullen, 1992; Brigham & Malpass, 1985; Shepherd, 1981; Zebrowitz et al., 1993).
