摘要

在德语中，通过性别公平的语言对称对待女性和男性的做法已得到公认，女性化形式的使用也得到了积极的评价。在本研究（N = 331）中，我们研究了这种积极评价背后的机制。女性求职者被评价为语言能力更强，总体能力更强，这就意味着在使用女性化（相对于男性化）的职位名称时，女性求职者会获得更有利的录用决定。这些结果表明，成功的语言改革会对妇女产生积极影响。

Why Using Feminine Job Titles in German Is Profitable for Women: Ascribed Linguistic Competence Enhance Prospects of Being Hired

In German, symmetrical treatment of women and men through gender-fair language is well established and the use of feminine forms is evaluated positively. In the present study ( N = 331), we examined the mechanisms behind this positive evaluation. Female job applicants were evaluated as more linguistically competent and as more competent in general, which translated into more favorable hiring decisions when using a feminine (vs. a masculine) job title. These results illuminate positive effects of successful language reform for women.
