Abstract

ABSTRACT In the last decades, there have been substantial changes in public attitudes toward gender roles and in television’s landscape and messages. Our meta-analysis of nearly 50 years of studies of television’s contribution to gender role attitudes is based on 485 effect sizes from 69 independent samples (N = 57,542) and reveals an overall effect size of .102. While we found no evidence of any decline of this association over time, it is significantly weaker for gender role attitudes related to the public sphere. Our findings imply that television viewing may strengthen an “egalitarian essentialism ideology,” that is, a discrepancy between the endorsement of gender equity in the public sphere/workplace and the persistence of traditional views regarding the private/domestic sphere.

社会变迁、文化抗拒:电视观看对性别角色态度影响的元分析

在过去的几十年里，公众对性别角色的态度以及电视的景观和信息都发生了实质性的变化。我们对近50年来关于电视对性别角色态度影响的研究进行了meta分析，基于来自69个独立样本(N = 57,542)的485个效应量，结果显示总体效应量为0.102。虽然我们没有发现这种关联随着时间的推移而下降的证据，但与公共领域相关的性别角色态度明显减弱。我们的研究结果表明，看电视可能会强化“平等主义的本质主义意识形态”，也就是说，在公共领域/工作场所支持性别平等与在私人/家庭领域坚持传统观点之间存在差异。
