Writing by principles: German-speaking newspaper guidelines and the use of non-binary gender-fair language
Previous research into the use of gender-fair noun references in German-speaking newspapers has found an overall increase in the use of gender-fair language (GFL) over the last decade. This trend also extends to the non-binary asterisk and colon.

It is therefore unsurprising that,…

From this synthesis, we derived a model of speaker attitudes about neologisms consisting of three core factors—efficiency, extravagance, and extralinguistic relevance. In three studies, we then empirically as…
