Abstract

Vocal cues are used to categorize speakers’ sexual orientation. Hearing a gay-sounding speaker can elicit discrimination. This study investigated whether gay-sounding speakers were discriminated against when applying for a job in Brazil and whether prejudice moderated such an effect. Heterosexual participants listened to a gay- or heterosexual-sounding applicant, rating him in terms of personality traits and employability. The results showed that gay-sounding candidates were discriminated against compared to heterosexual-sounding candidates, but this was true only among highly prejudiced participants.
谁会歧视听起来像同性恋的演讲者?偏见在巴西基于语音的招聘决策中的作用
语音提示用于对说话者的性取向进行分类。听到一个听起来像同性恋的演讲者会引起歧视。这项研究调查了在巴西求职时,听起来像同性恋的演讲者是否受到歧视,以及偏见是否会调节这种影响。异性恋参与者听取了一位听起来像同性恋或异性恋的申请人的意见,从性格特征和就业能力方面对他进行了评分。结果显示,与听起来像异性恋的候选人相比,听起来像同性恋的候选人受到歧视,但只有在偏见严重的参与者中才是如此。
