Conflict, gender, and amount of talk: Gender differences in Spanish role play data
The present paper examines whether speakers’ gender affects how much they talk in conflictive discourse in Spanish — measured through number of words and number and mean length of interventions. We analyse role play data simulating two conflictive situations with varying levels of proximity between the participants. In addition to comparing female and male informants, we use a sociopsychological questionnaire to measure the informants’ conformity…
Acoustic representations of different dimensions of the gendered self
When representing relations of gender and speech, there is a long tradition of conceiving gender as a binary construct (women vs. men). Although there is a growing interest in acoustic gender markers beyond the mere difference between female and male speech, the complex interrelations between acoustic markers and the different dimensions of the gendered self (e.g., gender identity, gender socialization) are not yet fully disentangled. Within-grou…
Ostracism Experiences of Sexual Minorities: Investigating Targets’ Experiences and Perceptions by Others
Lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) people face frequent discrimination, maltreatment, and violence for transgressing gender roles upheld in heteronormative societies. Ostracism (i.e., being excluded and ignored) is likely another, understudied form of discrimination against sexual minorities. In a multi-method approach using a nationally representative panel ( N = 4104) and experience sampling data ( N = 467, 14 days, k = 926 ostracism experiences)…
Sociolinguistic and functional variation in the use of direct reported speech in Spanish in the corpus CoLaGe-Valencia
Previous research has found gendered variation in the use of direct reported speech (DRS) in Spanish and other languages, generally suggesting that women use it more often than men, which has been attributed to women’s allegedly higher intersubjectivity. The present study examines DRS in a corpus specifically designed for the study of gendered variation in Spanish. Qualitatively, we identify two basic functions of DRS: narrative and evaluative. W…
Morphosyntactic stereotypes of speakers with different genders and sexual orientations: An experimental investigation
Previous research has identified differences in language use between speakers representing different genders and sexual orientations, as well as stereotypical beliefs about the existence of such differences. The present paper investigates such stereotypical beliefs among speakers of two varieties of Spanish and explores whether linguistic stereotypes of gender and sexual orientation are stronger in a society with more conservative gender roles. W…
Using Scenarios for Measuring the Affective and Behavioral Components of Attitudes Toward Lesbians and Gay Men: Validation of the Saba Scale
Gender (Conformity) Matters: Cross-Dimensional and Cross-Modal Associations in Sexual Orientation Perception
Although sexual orientation (SO) is perceptually ambiguous, people are able to detect it with above-chance accuracy from faces and, sometimes, from voices. Despite a multitude of "gaydar" studies, it is unclear (1) whether vocal or facial signals carry more SO information, (2) whether raters refer to target's SO instead of gender-role conformity when forming SO impressions, and (3) whether there are any differences for female and male targets. We…
Traditional Masculinity and Femininity: Validation of a New Scale Assessing Gender Roles
Gender stereotype theory suggests that men are generally perceived as more masculine than women, whereas women are generally perceived as more feminine than men. Several scales have been developed to measure fundamental aspects of gender stereotypes (e.g., agency and communion, competence and warmth, or instrumentality and expressivity). Although omitted in later version, Bem's original Sex Role Inventory included the items "masculine" and "femin…
