摘要

虽然近年来以人为中心的语言的使用有所增加,但它的使用仍然局限于刑事司法领域,其中像前罪犯这样的术语经常被用来描述以前被监禁的个人。研究表明,以人为本的语言对公众舆论很重要,但之前的工作并没有研究语言对支持回归公民重新融入社会的影响。本研究在实验上操纵了描述释放个体的语言和假设回归公民的种族对以下结果的影响:负面刻板印象认可、态度上的社会距离和对重返社会倡议的支持。我发现,以人为本的语言大大减少了对回归公民的污名化,最终增加了对重返社会服务的支持。这些发现表明,刑事司法话语的人性化改变可能有能力改变公众舆论,创造一个更有利于服刑后重返社会的社会环境。

The effects of language on the stigmatization and exclusion of returning citizens: Results from a survey experiment
Although the use of person-centered language has increased in recent years, its usage remains limited within the field of criminal justice, wherein terms such as ex-offender are frequently used to describe formerly incarcerated individuals. Research suggests that person-centered language matters for public opinion, but prior work has not examined the effect of language on support for the social reintegration of returning citizens. The present research experimentally manipulates the effects of the language used to describe individuals released from incarceration and the race of a hypothetical returning citizen on the following outcomes: negative stereotype endorsement, attitudinal social distance, and support for reintegrative initiatives. I find that person-centered language significantly reduces stigmatization of returning citizens, which ultimately increases support for reintegrative services. These findings suggest that humanizing changes to criminal justice discourse may have the capacity to shift public opinion and create a social context more conducive to reintegration after incarceration.
