Abstract

Men and women are well aware of the gender pay gap. The present study involved four experiments (N = 341, student sample, N = 203 general population sample) in which we indirectly measured empathy by asking participants to rate the non-complex and complex emotions they felt when reading a scenario in which a woman described her pay situation. Experiments 1 (equal pay vs. unequal pay) and 2, 3 & 4 (angry vs. depressed reaction to pay inequality) investigate differences in empathy arousal between men and women by assessing their emotions. Globally, both men and women identified correctly emotions expressed by the women victim of pay inequity. On complex emotions, women express more other suffering emotions than men, only in Experiment 4. Coupled with expression of guilt/shame for men only, these results are discussed in the perspective of future research.

性别薪酬差距受害者的移情唤起和情绪反应。
男性和女性都非常清楚两性薪酬差距。本研究包括四项实验(学生样本 341 人,普通人群样本 203 人),在这些实验中,我们要求参与者在阅读一位女性描述其薪酬状况的情景时,对其感受到的非复杂和复杂情绪进行评分,从而间接测量共情。实验 1(同酬与不同酬)、实验 2、3 和 4(对薪酬不平等的愤怒反应与抑郁反应)通过评估男性和女性的情绪,调查了他们在共情唤起方面的差异。总体而言,男性和女性都能正确识别薪酬不平等的女性受害者所表达的情绪。在复杂情绪方面,女性比男性表达更多的其他痛苦情绪,这仅出现在实验 4 中。再加上只有男性表达了内疚/羞愧情绪,这些结果将从未来研究的角度进行讨论。
