Participants' Likability Ratings for Candidates by Candidates' Traits and Participants' Ignoble-Trait Scores
Participants' Likability Ratings for Candidates by Candidates' Traits and Participants' Ignoble-Trait Scores

Alessandro Nai et al. presented study participants with vignettes about fictive political candidates, portraying them as embodying a personality trait widely considered admirable (e.g., agreeableness) or one considered ignoble (e.g., cynicism). A survey recorded participants' ratings of the candidates' likability and showed that across participants, ignoble-trait candidates were less likable than admirable-trait candidates. However, when the researchers factored in the participants' own personality-trait scores, on a scale of 1 (least ignoble) to 7 (most ignoble), they concluded that this relative ranking of candidates persisted except among the participants with high ignobility scores. Which choice best describes data from the graph that support the researchers' conclusion?

Quantitative evidence: reading the graph the question did not ask about — A choice can describe the chart perfectly and still be the wrong answer. Match the data point to the claim.
