Not accurate at all. You cannot base an accurate decision just by how someone looks. This is playing to bias and prejudgment without any facts or relevant information.

The correct answer would be the following: the participant's predictions would be very accurate, as they were based on using the methodology of thin slices of behavior. Thin slices of behavior is a type of research methodology done by observing a small selection of an interaction or experience, and being able to find patterns and to draw a conclusion based on the attitudes portrait by the people that participate in the interaction.This is why the participants in the mentioned study would be able to arrive to accurate predictions about the political candidates showed in the 30 second clip.
