Reexamining the Relationship Between Gender and Abstraction: Does Context Matter
Men communicate more abstractly than women. In addition, lay people hold a gender abstraction stereotype such that people expect men to think more abstractly than women. The current research examines whether gender differences in abstraction as well as gender stereotypes about abstraction are moderated by context (cognitive task versus communicative task). Study 1 demonstrates that gender differences in abstraction are stronger in communication c…
I” am more concrete than “we: Linguistic abstraction and first-person pronoun usage
There has been much discussion around when people use "I" versus "we" pronouns, and abstract versus concrete communications, as well as how each of these can shape communication effectiveness. In the current research we bring together these separate research streams. Drawing on research arguing that abstract and concrete language are linked with communicative scope, we argue for an association between linguistic abstractness and personal pronoun …
Gender differences in communicative abstraction
Drawing on construal level theory, which suggests that experiencing a communicative audience as proximal rather than distal leads speakers to frame messages more concretely, we examine gender differences in linguistic abstraction. In a meta-analysis of prior studies examining the effects of distance on communication, we find that women communicate more concretely than men when an audience is described as being psychologically close. These gender …
Communicating With Distant Others: The Functional Use of Abstraction
We introduce the construct of relational scope to refer to the degree to which an individual engages in communication with a more or less distant audience, with a contractive relational scope indicating a near audience and an expansive relational scope indicating a distant audience. Drawing on construal level theory, we argue that speakers use abstract messages strategically when faced with an expansive relational scope in order to be widely rele…
