[after the failed replication of the effect that showing tears makes people be perceived as less competent, we set up a series of preregistered studies. when following the exact protocol of Van de Ven et al. (2017) we found the effect, but when a more varied set of stimuli pictures was used we no longer found the effect. we therefore conclude that there is not enough evidence to suggest that displaying tears negatively affects perceived competence]
