Contributions to reducing online gender harassment: Social re-norming and appealing to empathy as tried-and-failed techniques
Inspired by similar methods shown to be effective in reducing online racist harassment, we designed two tweets aimed at reducing online gender harassment. Our interventions were based on the principles of social re-norming and appealing to harassers’ empathy. In a sample of 666 Twitter users engaging in sexist or misogynist tweeting, we found that our intervention tweets did not reduce the number of sexist slurs or sexist users, either 7 days or 31 days after being sent. Our attempts also affected neither the valence nor the arousal of subsequent tweets posted by our sample of Twitter users. We discuss the conceptual, methodological, and ethical challenges associated with activist research aimed at reducing online gender harassment and discuss some of the implications of our attempts to do so.
期刊介绍:
Feminism & Psychology provides a forum for debate at the interface between feminism and psychology. The journal"s principal aim is to foster the development of feminist theory and practice in – and beyond – psychology. It publishes high-quality original research, theoretical articles, and commentaries. We are interested in pieces that provide insights into the gendered reality of everyday lives, especially in relation to women and girls, as well as pieces that address broader theoretical issues. Feminism & Psychology seeks to publish work from scholars, researchers, activists and practitioners at all stages of their careers who share a feminist analysis of the overlapping domains of gender and psychology.
