Abstract

This study examined how the #MeToo movement, and backlash against it (#HimToo), influence rape myth acceptance (RMA) and negative affect among female sexual trauma survivors and controls. We randomly assigned college women (N  =  389) to three social media conditions that either promoted RMA (#HimToo), challenged RMA (#MeToo), or did not address rape myths (general social media (GSM)). The findings demonstrated that women in the #HimToo condition reported more RMA, whereas women in the #MeToo and GSM conditions reported less negative affect. The results highlight that the way we talk about rape on social media influences momentary affect and RMA.

社交媒体对大学女生接受强奸神话和负面情绪的影响:研究 #MeToo 和 #HimToo 运动。
本研究探讨了 #MeToo 运动和对该运动的反弹(#HimToo)如何影响女性性创伤幸存者和对照组的强奸迷思接受度(RMA)和消极情绪。我们将女大学生(N = 389)随机分配到三个社交媒体环境中,这三个环境分别是提倡 RMA(#HimToo)、质疑 RMA(#MeToo)或不涉及强奸迷思(一般社交媒体 (GSM))。研究结果表明,在 #HimToo 条件下,女性报告的 RMA 更多,而在 #MeToo 和 GSM 条件下,女性报告的负面影响更少。结果突出表明,我们在社交媒体上谈论强奸的方式会影响瞬间情感和 RMA。
