Returning to the “what is beautiful is good” stereotype, very few researchers study this effect in the context of service providers and their evaluation (Gabbott & Hogg, 2000). Within the context of higher education, a literature review reveals that four recent studies on related topics. Hamermesh and Parker (2005) examine the productivity effects of beauty in the context of undergraduate education by investigating the effect of instructors' looks on their instructional ratings.The findings indicate that measures of perceived beauty have a substantial independent positive impact on instructional ratings (Ribeiro-Soriano & Urbano, 2010; Ribeiro-Soriano & Castrogiovanni, 2012). Campbell, Gerdes, and Steiner (2005) challenge Hamermesh and Parker's (2005) results by adding a number of control variables to the equation.
