摘要

摘要角色一致性理论（RCT）广泛认为，当女性担任领导角色时，她们违背了对女性角色的期望。本文使用随机对照试验来开发和直接测试与哪些类型的性别刻板印象角色侵犯可能导致选民对女性政治家的偏见有关的理论。我们认为并发现，选民偏见很可能是由代理人的不协调造成的——惩罚通过表现出代理人的主导特征（如恐吓或傲慢）来侵犯其性别角色的女性候选人。当选举背景有利于男性刻板印象中的优势时，这种违反角色的行为会引起强烈的反对。

Gender Role Violations and Voter Prejudice: The Agentic Penalty Faced by Women Politicians

ABSTRACT Role Congruity Theory (RCT) broadly suggests that when women step into leadership roles, they violate the expectations of their role as women. This article uses RCT to develop and directly test theories related to which types of gender stereotype role violations might cause voter bias toward women politicians. We argue and find that voter prejudice most likely results from an agentic incongruity–punishing a woman candidate who violates her gender role by displaying agentic, dominant traits such as being intimidating or arrogant. Backlash for this type of role violation is strong when the election context favors male stereotypical strengths.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Women, Politics & Policy explores women and their roles in the political process as well as key policy issues that impact women''s lives. Articles cover a range of tops about political processes from voters to leaders in interest groups and political parties, and office holders in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government (including the increasingly relevant international bodies such as the European Union and World Trade Organization). They also examine the impact of public policies on women''s lives in areas such as tax and budget issues, poverty reduction and income security, education and employment, care giving, and health and human rights — including violence, safety, and reproductive rights — among many others. This multidisciplinary, international journal presents the work of social scientists — including political scientists, sociologists, economists, and public policy specialists — who study the world through a gendered lens and uncover how gender functions in the political and policy arenas. Throughout, the journal places a special emphasis on the intersection of gender, race/ethnicity, class, and other dimensions of women''s experiences.
