摘要

摘要尽管一般的阳性形式应该包括所有人,但它们似乎唤起了排除其他性别的阳性表征(Stahlberg&Sczesny,2001)。具有性别包容性的替代方案可能会产生更具包容性的表述,但这一点尚未得到广泛调查。目前的研究集中在德语上,并将一般的阳性形式(Politiker,politics)与性别明星(Politiker*innen,politics[m/f/d])进行对比,以评估他们在非男性榜样的心理可用性方面是否存在差异。研究结果表明,语言形式很重要,因为当参与者接触到性别明星时,会列出更多的女性样本,尽管很少提到其他非男性样本。此外,女性参与者列出的非男性样本比男性参与者更多,但由于样本存在偏差(女性参与者比男性参与者多),这一结果是暂时的。因此,性别明星会导致更具包容性的心理表征,但其他因素也可能在决定非男性榜样的突出程度方面发挥作用。

A star is born? The German gender star and its effects on mental representation
Abstract Although generic masculine forms supposedly include everyone, they seem to evoke masculine representations to the exclusion of other genders (Stahlberg & Sczesny, 2001). Gender-inclusive alternatives may yield more inclusive representations, but this has not been investigated extensively. The current study focused on German and contrasts generic masculine forms (Politiker, politicians) with the gender star (Politiker*innen, politicians [m/f/d]) in order to assess whether they differ in the mental availability of nonmasculine exemplars. The findings suggest that linguistic form matters, as more female exemplars were listed when participants were exposed to the gender star, although very few other nonmasculine exemplars were mentioned. Furthermore, female participants listed more nonmasculine exemplars than male participants, but, as the sample was skewed (more female than male participants), this result is tentative. Thus, the gender star leads to more inclusive mental representations, but other factors likely also play a role in determining the prominence of nonmasculine exemplars.
